Family Medicine: Ambulatory Care and Prevention review4
Lots of helpful information. However, I don't really cae for the format -have to search for treatments, especialy medications. Not that reader-friendly.

Great book4
I must say that it is one of the great books about family medicine, the only drawback is the text size.

An Amazing "Fast Facts" Collection for Family Medicine5
I've been looking for this kind of text for a while. Terse enough for board review, complete enough for reference and teaching (I am an adjunct faculty member of a family medicine residency program). I've recommended it without equivocation to all our residents.
