Reviews for Practical General Practice: Guidelines for Effective Clinical Management

""I have used previous editions of this excellent book and without doubt, this new and fresh edition maintains an excellent tradition, set by previous editions. It is packed full of information, excellent advice and gets straight to the point,... [which] makes it easy to read and quick to absorb and perfect for healthcare professionals in front line primary care in the UK (and elsewhere though it is very much UK orientated). It makes an excellent reference book for a GP in training or an established GP as well as other clinical members of a primary care team,... packed with practical knowledge which is very helpful to managing a patient and is written in a clear and concise manner. It is surprisingly comprehensive, and like previous editions, authoritative but concise and there are good general references and signposting to relevant guidelines. [A] great book to have accessible in the consulting room which allows you to read round a patient’s problem before (or during) or after the consultation."" - Dr. Harry Brown, Geriatric Medicine Journal, April 2025
