Editorial Reviews

Review

"Dr. Khan has produced an excellent text that manages to cover the broad scope of emergency medicine while remaining concise and easily readable. I give it two very enthusiastic thumbs up and it will have a place on my bookshelf for years to come."- Dr. Mark Plaster, founder/executive editor of Emergency Physicians Monthly

"Best review book available. Great questions, great explanations, and a perfect review book to prep you for the EM boards...I have had other review books and none are as good as this one." - Dr. Eric Canaday, former chief resident, UMKC

"High-yield, full color, easy-to-read, and entertaining. Can't ask for more than that in a review book...I would highly recommend this book for all levels, subintern to resident to fellow to attending physician."
- Dr. Ryan Pedigo, EM student clerkship director, Harbor-UCLA

"The Ultimate EM Guide is concise but detailed, well written, clinically relevant, and up to date. It even has a sense of humor. It's appropriate for all levels of training and even for those who are recertifying. Overall a great review book for all emergency medicine physicians."- Dr. Matthew Gratton, Professor and Chair of Emergency Medicine, Univ of MO-Kansas City

One of the most comprehensive straight forward review books that got me to the finish line. I am grateful for this book as well as the author. I had to pick one resource my last month before the exam, this was it and I don't regret it. Passed my qualifying boards. Buy this book. Don't think twice. Thank you Dr. Khan.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best content review resource for EM boards out there!
Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2022
Verified Purchase
I bought this book back when I was an EM intern some years ago looking for the "First Aid" book equivalent to accompany the "UWorld" that is Rosh Review for emergency medicine ITE/board prep. Recently passed the ABEM written boards very comfortably and definitely give this book a lot of credit for some of that test taking success over the years! Now as an academic EM attending, I find myself mentioning this resource to my residents all the time. This book is spot on for a lot of the content on the actual test and is such a quick, easy, fun to read review of some high yield points. Just wanted to thank you again for this awesome resource and will be sure to keep passing the word along!

5.0 out of 5 stars High-yield no-nonsense compendium for front-line medicine
Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2017
Verified Purchase
I am a senior academic neurologist and physiatrist from Sweden. This means that I am NOT young, and NOT working in Emergency Medicine. Yet I feel Confident in stating that Dr Khan's book is an excellent way to learn "frontline medicine". What makes me feel apt to judge this? Well, first of all I have authored 15 books in the Medical field. Secondly, I have been teaching medicine to students and junior doctors for 30+ years. Thirdly, I take time each year to practise medicine in rural areas of Sweden, where you are exposed to emergency medicine every day.

The unique features of Dr Khan's book are: 1. It's "no-nonsense", plain and straight; 2. It's style is enjoyable to read; 3. There is space for jotting down your own notes; 4. There is a very pedagogical interplay between text, page layout and Pictures. Good Medical books should be FUN to read! This is typically NOT the case. The Ultimate EM Guide, however, is an exception.

A small caveat, though: I found a few facts that may be incorrect. e.g. isn't it typically the medial rather than the lateral meniscus which is torn in the "unhappy triad"-type of knee injury?

In conclusion: Congratulations, Dr Khan! This book should be bought by any colleague who practises front-line, everyday medicine!

Used this in combination with PEER to study for my qualifying exam. It was the perfect outline on which to take notes and focus on high yield topics. Great questions at the end of the book. Passed easily. Some small typos but no big errors in information.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best EM book ever!
Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2015
Verified Purchase
This book is amazing!!! Everything in it is high yield emergency medicine. It is colorful and funny, yet its written in a logical manner and explains things in a way that is to the point but also has the background I need to make it stick in my mind.

The best part of this book has to be the pictures. The ophthalmology chapter alone makes this book worth it. It has everything you will ever need to know about EM in one book, in a format that looks like what someones high yield notes they made throughout residency would look like. There are tips about how to differentiate different similar diseases from each other, and mnemonics along the way that are super helpful (especially the drug mnemonics!). There are also plenty of practice questions throughout the book with answers and explanations.

Its truly a great book. I own a hefty stack of EM books, but its really the only one I ever look at since I bought it. It is the best money I ever spent on an EM book. Definitely the Ultimate EM Guide!

5.0 out of 5 stars Color me Impressed!!!
Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2015
Verified Purchase
I'm currently an attending at a non-affiliated university to the authors/contributors of this book and I love it! I feel like most of us in emergency medicine have a short attention span; that's why we didn't go into a speciality that required rounding or clinic several times a week. The way the information is delivered with pictures and questions in between topics is superb, better than most books out there. There is a lot of space for those of us that like to annotate books and add our own two cents. I would highly recommend this book to medical students to attendings in emergency medicine.

米国EM資格試験向けの本です。小児科やMinor emergencyなど、なんでもみなければいけない北米型ERで働く後期研修医にちょうど良い内容と量だと思います。本の大きさ、ベージ数の割に、空きスペースが広く、写真が多く、文字も大きくてサクサク読めるようになってます。Rosenはちょっと・・・という人にオススメです。
