This book is fantastic!! It should be a must for all medical students, as well as for residents in family practice, internal medicine and anyone doing a GI fellowship. It is written very clearly and concisely, with an emphasis on quick retention and learning. It covers all expected topics within the GI system, and is an invaluable resource for anyone in the medical field. I have not found a resource similar to PRIMO GASTRO that provides quick access to a plethora of topics. I am a practicing physician myself and I find myself referring to this text on a regular basis. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this book for anyone wishing to increase their knowledge regarding the GI system--for general practice, board review or specialty practice. It is worth your investment!!

My wife is an Adult Nurse Practitioner in a busy Gastroenterology/Hepatology practice. This book provides pertinent information about most GI disorders with etiology, symptoms, differential diagnoses, and treatment. Excellent resource. Any future updated version will most definitely be purchased in years to come.

This book is essential for every GI Fellow as well as any IM or FP resident or student on GI/Liver rotations. It gives quick answers to GI and Liver issues in the clinic or at the bedside. I am currently a third year GI fellow and use this book daily. It is set up very nicely with standardized subtopics within each topic. The book is very thorough but breaks down issues simplistically. You will definitely gain quick knowledge for diagnosis and treatment that will make you look smart in front of any staff. The difference between this book and others, such as Secretes or Yamada, is that those books are big and heavy and you have to wade through a lot of stuff to find a quick answer to any question. I highly recommend this book.

Information is well organized. It is a great resource but the small print makes it very difficult to read. Not an easy book to pick up and review a section because of the font size.

This handbook is very well-written. It contains almost all the details that a practicing GI physician needs. It is even good for exam preparation. The book is organized by organ system. It is very easy to find the information quickly. It is obvious that authors has tried to find the best references for each chapter to provide enough details. Overall, it is the one of the best short books on GI.
