Ambulatory Care for the Adult is an excellent aid to the success of third- and fourth-year medical students as diagnosticians of medical problems presented by adults in ambulatory settings. Common chief complaints are presented, key associated signs and symptoms discussed, and tables of common patterns of symptoms presented. Multiple cases are presented for each chief complaint, leading to a different diagnosis. Specific diagnoses and succinct summaries of treatment options are given. A ten-page table of frequently prescribed drugs and their unlabeled uses, as well as their labeled indications, is included.
