This book is by far the best I have found for a basic overview of common ortho complaints seen in primary care. Gives case presentation, treatment, not-to-be-missed diagnoses on the differential, and when to refer to ortho. Well written, concise, and the paper quality is excellent. I prefer this book as a general overview, and Essentials of Musculoskeletal Care for what exercises patients should do. If you need to increase your basic knowledge of ortho, get this Lipincott Book.

very detailed and point specific, gives me all the information i need, just wish it covered more topics

This is an excellent resource when your learning a new specialty being orthro. I loved it. Great simple easy to understand content.

OK, but I would save your money and buy the essentials of musculoskeletal care.

Didn't use this much during school but looking forward to keeping it as a ortho reference in practice.

Insightful
