The updated and improved 3rd Edition of Dr. Levien's clinical handbook is now even better at guiding readers through the bread and butter aspects of general surgery. It begins with note and order writing and progresses through key procedures, organized by anatomic area or physiologic system, then continues with advice on surgical critical care. Concludes with chapters on educational resources and surgical milestones. Offers quick access to core knowledge so that readers are able to communicate effectively with practitioners in the surgical ward.
