Lab Values: Everything You Need to Know about Laboratory Medicine and its Importance in the Diagnosis of Diseases: Second Edition

Very good introduction to an initially intimidating, though critical, skill.Straightforward presentation, sensitive to the needs and concerns of “newbies.”

Amazing!

This little book comes packed with a plethora of knowledge for one to take control of their health and self evaluate your lab values. Great read!

Im an RN and nurse practitioner student. Overall impression of this lab book is that the information is presented very concisely and in an easy-to-understand format. While there are always more tests that can be run, I think this book does a fantastic job of providing information on the most commonly used lab tests. I have purchased many lab reference books that are quite overwhelming with the amount of information included. I believe your lab book addresses the most frequently used tests and can be useful to a variety of medical professionals.I very much like that you have included some common causes of abnormal laboratory values. This is incredibly useful when discussing lab results with patients as one of the most common questions is “why?” The text is written in a way that is not overly technical, making it easier to understand for a variety of medical professionals and students.

Not enough of information and too basic for me

Well written and a refresher for the seasoned clinician. Will not recommend for a new learner.

So far so good. Book also has case scenarios and different exercises.

good reference book
