excellent resource
this has to be one of the best purchases I have made. I use this multiple times a day. I do chart auditing and quality assurance at a large clinic and this book is irreplacable. I use it all the time. It is easy to use, small, and very easy to read. I reccomened it to any one in the medical field that ever questions what the abbreviations are that their Dr's use.

I have found every abbreviation I have ever looked for.
As a court reporter, I am constantly faced with deciphering doctors' medical "lingo." This book has been an absolute God-send for me. I have found every abbreviation I have ever looked for. It is the most thorough book I have come across for medical abbreviations, and I have an extensive reference library. The eponym section is not the best I've seen, but overall, this book is a ...

Super Source
Medicine is not an exact science, but it doesn't mean that doctors (and nurses) can make up their own abbreviations or use ones that have three conflicting meanings!

Since they now "borrow your book Marylou", transcribing orders is not only safer, but less stressfull as it has cut down on ...
