Media Reviews
A highly recommended text for students entering their clinical years, especially those who require a gentle 'snapshot' of what to expected when confronted with their first OSCE. Clearly divided into History, Examination, Procedural and Communication Skills. It approaches many aspects of competent clinical practice applicable to a medical student.
