Reviews

From the reviews:

“This book comprises a series of actual patient case presentations in geriatric dermatology. … it can also provide guidance to internists, family practitioners, and emergency room physicians. … it would be most useful for dermatology residents and nondermatologists. … This book is well written and a lot of fun to read. It offers great didactic value to novice dermatologists and healthcare providers who are not dermatologists, as well as a good test of knowledge for seasoned veterans.” (Renata H. Mullen, Doody's Book Reviews, March, 2013)
