Review

Five-star reviews:
Superb CSA Resource "I am a GP Trainer and found this book an excellent resource whilst helping my current ST3 prepare for his CSA.
It provides a succinct evidence based summary for clinical scenarios and gives a great range to help cover the RCGP curriculum.
The summary of the guidelines used is helpful to signpost trainees to the most up-to-date guidelines to help consolidate any learning.
I would definitely recommend this as a resource to carry around whilst preparing for the CSA!" Amazon reviewer

Great Book! "I recently sat my CSA and used this book. It is very well laid out with excellent consultation examples and guidance to practice with. It was especially good for group learning and the layout is very user friendly and allows you to revise independently using the example "management" section of the book. I would thoroughly recommend this as a CSA resource." Amazon reviewer

Fantastic and informative book "The systematic presentation, explanations and variability of questions is particularly well thought out. A fantastic read for both trainer and trainee. Well categorised" Amazon reviewer
Good teaching and exam prep aid "Clear concise and comprehensive.
As a GP trainer it has been useful both in terms of exam prep but also as a means of checking what hasn't come up in day to day practice" Amazon reviewer

A must have "Fantastic resource for the CSA" Amazon reviewer

Well presented "Excellent resource for the CSA" Amazon reviewer
