Product Description
No other quick reference comes close to providing this much accurate, timely, and clinically useful diagnostic and therapeutic information. It's like six books in one -- Diseases and Disorders, Procedures and Techniques, Differential Diagnosis, Laboratory Tests, Clinical Algorithms, and a Drug Formulary. Plus, it includes free access to a fully searchable companion website featuring an electronic version of the text, a searchable drug formulary, and 100 customizable Client Education Sheets in both English and Spanish.
- This text brings together the expertise of 21 internationally recognized authorities as contributing editors and 300 leading clinician-authors into a single, comprehensive source.
- A wealth of high-quality illustrations clearly demonstrates key concepts and procedures.
- Section I: Diseases and Disorders provides at-a-glance coverage of more than 700 common medical problems, arranged alphabetically for immediate access. Each entry presents the topic in the sequence it follows clinically, including: history and physical exam findings, diagnostic testing, treatment (including specific medications and dosages), prognosis, and recommended monitoring. References for each topic support the data presented.
- Section II: Procedures and Techniques offers illustrated, step-by-step instructions for understanding and performing 89 important clinical procedures.
- Section III: Differential Diagnosis displays nearly every possible cause for 263 different clinical disorders.
- Section IV: Laboratory Tests summarizes essential information needed for interpreting more than 150 laboratory tests.
- Section V: Clinical Algorithms provides decision trees for the diagnostic and therapeutic decision-making processes involved in managing more than 90 of the most common clinical conditions/disorders.
- Section VI: Drug Formulary is a compilation of dosages and other relevant information for more than 300 new and current medications.
- A companion website includes the complete text of the book in a fully searchable format, which allows quick identification of any topic and its related information in the six different sections. The website also includes 100 customizable Client Education Sheets, each available in both English and Spanish.

 disappointed January 6, 2009
I purchased the Clinical Veterinary Advisor and I wish I could have seen a few pages first as this is not a book I would have bought other-wise. Its far too complicated, and less informative, in lay-mens terms. If I were allowed to have looked through a few pages; I would have known this before I wasted my money. They should allow this on here before purchasing anything. Its the second such book Ive purchased that I had the same problem with on this site. Really disappointed.--Sincerely Harry B.

 Missing 40 pages including first page of index otherwise great December 1, 2008
This text is an awesome resource that came in good condition, but is missing 40 pages from the back including the first page of the index.
 Best reference for general practice. November 23, 2008

This is an outstanding reference for a general veterinary practice. The client handouts, available in english and spanish, are clearly written and very valuable tools in client education. The book is well organized and the CD so easy to search. I think both new grads and "seasoned" practitioners will find this helpful in everyday practice. It is absolutely worth the already reasonable price.

I can not rate this product. So the above is in correct. I never received this product due to my not giving enough information on my company's address. But I do wish I had received an email telling me it
had been returned so that I could have ordered it again and earlier since
it was a christmas gift for my daughter-in-law. She is a vet student and needed it.
Sorry
