Orthopaedics Guide for Today's GP
«
"This book could make an excellent contribution to improving GPs knowledge and understanding of the variety of musculoskeletal problems that we see on a daily basis. Its slimness means that it concentrates on the common issues and that I suspect that most people would want it to help them deal with front line problems. Equally its slimness is a physical advantage in that it can be kept in the consulting room within easy access for the healthcare professional to quickly read up on a topic."Dr Harry Brown, Glycosmedia, December 2017http://www.glycosmedia.com/an-orthopaedics-guide-for-todays-gp/
