Master Diagnostician Series: Approach to Anemia in the Adult Patient - Free

An expansive diagnostic and educational tool for managing anemia

“Medicine is learned by the bedside and not in the classroom. Let not your conceptions of disease come from words heard in the lecture room or read from the book. See, and then reason and compare and control. But see first.” – Sir William Osler M.D.

Great clinicians like Osler knew the importance of a thorough history and physical. To be a master diagnostician, one also needs to know how to accurately distinguish the intricacies of differential diagnoses. The MD series aims at doing just that. And, with this tool, learning at the bedside just became easier.
