BigM Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 Hi guys, I was hoping to get some suggestions on textbooks and other resources that will be useful for neurology and psychiatry, particularly in clerkship. We will be starting the pre-clerkship portion of these two blocks fairly soon and as they are areas of interest for me I will be focusing on them in clerkship. Has anyone come across things that they wish they knew about heading into these units? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
music_video Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 Though I've never done a neurology rotation, whenever I have come across anything neuro-related, I find hitting up the ol' Neuroanatomy by Blumenfeld works well (that and Uptodate). As for psychiatry, Kaplan's "Synopsis of Psychiatry" is pretty decent (although it can get a bit tedious). Toronto Notes for psychiatry is alright for certain sections only (eg. intoxications, suicide). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigM Posted March 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 you guys have a neurology rotation in your 3rd year clerkship at UWO? No, its our 2nd last pre-clerkship block so that aspect of it is coming up next. During 3rd year its an option internal medicine selective for us. I don't believe that its an extremely common choice.
