anesthete Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Hi all Just curious to see if anybody has any good books / resources to help in the transition from 2nd to 3rd year; or from basic sciences to clinical-type thinking more generally? LANGE case files in family medicine From Symptom to Diagnosis These come to mind.. Does anybody have any other suggestions? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mononoke Posted September 24, 2016 Report Share Posted September 24, 2016 I've found toronto notes to be a really good summary of everything The lange case files are available for other specialties too, so those can be helpful as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codebar Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 What I've used and really loved during clerckship Current medical diagnosis and treatment and Uptodate for any medical rotation (internal medicine, geriatric, family med) Blueprints Obstetrics and Gynecology : by far the best book I've read as a clerck (and I have never really been interested in obgyn). Very well written and summarized. Toronto Notes for general surgery. Sadly, I didn't find any better for that rotation. Seriously, I hate this book. I'm realizing that I didn't read anything specific for ped and psych. Other I used for my electives: Orthobullets and ortho traumapedia (website and mobile application) for ortho (obviously) Grabb and Smith's Plastic Surgery and Michigan Manual of Plastic Surgery : 2 must have for plastic surgery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NLengr Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 I used T notes for most of clerkship. Sometimes first aid I hated case files for ANY specialty. I found it took too long per case to get to the small amount of learbing material covered in that case. Others I know loved it. Depends how you process information. Gen. Surg didn't really have a good book, and I tried a bunch. For IM I used USMLE world and did a ton of SAQs, along with the reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
