Essentials of Gastroenterology

Excellent bridge between basic science pathophysiology and clinical gastroenterology; based on 2nd yr Emory medical school lectures according to the authors. Seems ideal for 2nd year GI organ system. Includes "classic" GI-related pathology, skin lesions, and radiographs. Comparable to Mayo GI Board Review, although less detailed regarding treatment.

Excellent book and written by an outstanding doctor who passed away from cancer at a young age. I would recommend this book to all doctors whether in gastroenterology or general internist or medical student. It is excellent and the best I have seen.

This book was wonderful for basic overviews of a variety of GI disease states. It utilized bullet-pointed information on presentation, ddx, and treatment, and summarized each disease in an understandable way. This book absolutely helped me get through my GI module!

Each disease is broken down from symptoms down to treatment. I thoroughly enjoyed using this book during our GI Module and will continue to use it through rotations.

Great reference book for GI!

Very easy to read! Lots of good information condensed in a few pages!

Good basic book. I like it.As a physician I need a more advanced handbook. I think it is good book for Resident and fellow.
