Welcome

This new edition of the well-established and highly-respected handbook focuses on the needs of medical students and junior doctors. The handbook reflects the expansion of the traditional skills of history taking and examination, whilst ensuring complete familiarity with and understanding of the 'basics'. Each chapter provides step-by-step guidance through the practical techniques with which students and juniors must be familiar with and competent in. The patient is put at the centre of care with advice on how to communicate with patients appropriately and with compassion and correctly interpret the response. The video clips provided on this website provide additional illustrative guidance to good procedural practice.
