The author is one of the unsung heroes of modern surgery history. I have read about him in other doctors' books and articles, such as Starzl. He was said to be an outspoken man and smart doctor. He was not willing to go with the flow and would not tolerate nonsense.4/5. Get this from a library.

So your doctor recommended surgery. [John Lewis, M.D.]. Whether the patient is yourself or a loved one, you are bound to have many questions about the operation the doctor has recommended--concerns that even the most attentive and thorough doctor might be too busy to address completely.

The Surgery Book is a dependable, comprehensive sourcebook that answers these important medical questions. Designed for the layperson, the book explains the seventy-three most common surgical /5(12).

On the positive side, this book covers a range of issues from the training of medical doctors through to the internal struggles surgeons face, touching on many side subjects along the way, covering the issues of medical malpractice, the lack of patient knowledge about doctors, and the hospital system as a whole/5().

While I'm a fan of Sabiston's book and several others, I think it's in a resident's best interest to just stick to the SCORE curriculum. It used to be a glorified online version of Greenfields and ACS Surgery, but it has evolved over time. For your junior resident years, pick one of the big three - Sabiston, Greenfield, Shwartz.

The content is *the same* in all, they're just edited and arranged differently. The one you choose is entirely up to your own preferences. Look at all three, pick the one you like. Mastery of Surgery is best saved for your senior years in residency.

Also, gives latest techniques and treatment available and recommended for different surgical procedures. For medicine, hands down, the one, the only- HARRISON! No seriously, I'm in love with that book.

That's also probably why I'm prejudiced in favour of it. Also because I'm an internal med girl, I've read it with relish during MD too.

My advice is t. Very much written to the student/resident level but in depth enough to get a lot out of it. Definately for SICU, you'll get kicked out of the MICU if you walk in with this book, but why would you want to walk in there anyways.

No trauma surg stuff though, so if you are spending most of your time in the OR don't get it. 1. Bailey and Love (Theory) 2.
