I use this book daily as an internal medicine resident. I recently used it during two weeks of overnight admissions, and it was easy to quickly find the relevant information to create management plans. Online activation worked fine for me. Also no missing pages in the physical copy, though the back cover was a little wrinkled during shipping. Overall highly recommended.
Internal Medicine Resident Review
  • Additional reviews for The Washington Manual®

    “Really excellent book. It's great that it can be accessed as an eBook on your laptop and Smartphone. The Case Quizzes at the end of the chapters are very good as well.”

    “Great Source of Medical Information”

    “Many years ago I had a much smaller version of this book as an intern. Was never without it. It necessarily has become a bigger work. I miss the spiral binding. The font is too small for my aging eyes, but I understand larger font would make the book even bigger. A huge plus is the purchase enables you to download the book to your computer and other devices. I am an Apple user and the book is now on my Mac, iPhone and iPad. In those locations the font is larger and very easy to read. The book will probably remain at home for most and they will use their portable device for reference.”

    “Readable comprehensive guide for inpatient internal medicine is massive but compact and well bound. It gets right to the point! However the index is incomplete and numerous subjects discussed in the book are not listed In the index. However the included electronic version Is fully searchable, hyperlinked, scrolls nicely, and is an delightfully unexpected add-on to this essential guide.”
