Step-Up to Medicine (Step-Up Series)

Absolutely love this book. Helped me get through my clerkship exams and finals!

Purchased September 5th, 2019. Beautiful, great for Step 2! Just don't forget to study Psyche, Surgery, Pediatrics, Ob-Gyn, etc. because this book only contains medicine. See the included photo of HTN to clear up any confusion to whether or not to book is updated.

I used this to study for boards a couple years ago and found that it had just enough info for review without getting to in depth. I recently transitioned from specialty into primary care and purchased the new edition just to keep on hand for quick review.

This book provides straight forward succinct information. It’s in bullet point form delivering essentials for care by disease process.

I am a PA student and I like this book overall because it gives more detail into conditions and provides “quick hits” of high yield info which I find very helpful! My only wish is that it was more specific with antibiotic treatments. Sometimes it just says “treat with antibiotics.” I’d prefer if it lists the recommended antibiotics or class. But still, I would recommend this book as a great addition.

I used this as reference when doing OME videos and annotated while doing questions and it really helped integrate the information for me. It’s not super detailed so it wasn’t a perfect reference during rotations but a good help for studying the basics. Very first aid style quick facts

This is a must have for all students in clinical rotations.

Good comprehensive book and learned a lot for shelf exams from it. I would highly recommend to all med students.

The book is great but the cover was damaged when I received it. It is disappointing since it was supposed to be brand new.

Good book.. But came in bad condition, wrinkled on angle and seems like was stored in wet place. Disappointed

While the actual textbook itself is a great tool for medical students and residents alike, the quality of the item from this particular sender was simply not ok. The first time I sat down with this book, the cover came apart from the spine/actual book itself. It hadn't been dropped anywhere or had any physical damage done to it, so I am not sure why the quality of this textbook is so bad. I have an older version of this textbook that I purchased from my university bookstore about 3 years ago and the textbook has held up well. Simply not ok to have this happen, especially for a text that most users would be reaching for / reading often.
