Product Description
Written by leading American practitioners, the Oxford American Handbooks of Medicine each offer a pocket-sized overview of an entire specialty, featuring instant access to guidance on the conditions that are most likely to be encountered. Precise and prescriptive, the handbooks offer up-to-date advice on examination, investigations, common procedures, and in-patient care. These books will be invaluable resources for residents and students, as well as a useful reference for practitioners.
This unique pocket book provides rapid access to evidence-based guidelines and practical advice about the day-to-day management of patients with renal disease.

5 out of 5 stars A must for every Renal trainee   October 4, 2009
Tariq Rehman
I got this American version of Oxford handbook of nephrology/Hypertension- I dont find much difference between the UK version (I had it before) and the US version. Infact, it makes it easier to read US version as the all the units are in written in US ways..
In my opinion, every nephrology fellow should have this in his white coat pocket - as it is a quick hand reference and I am sure one can pass the boards just by reading it.
