An engaging introductory guide to the core topics in geriatric medicineA Doody's Core Title for 2015.“This is a valuable reference for those treating geriatric patients, providing well-reasoned expectations. It offers a common-sense approach in a medical system that is oriented to procedure numbers rather than focused on what a rational outcome is.

A must read for clinical practitioners working with Geriatric patients. This book covers the expected changes in the anatomy, systems, functional and cognitive domains of the Geriatric patient. Filled with a good mix of charts and very readable, accessible information for assessment and managemment. Relevant to healthcare changes and the increasing population of patients that will fall under this category.
As a Geriatrician I think it's a great review/quick reference. I would highly recommend to geriatric fellows, but I think it would also be a great quick reference for any primary care provider.
thanks!
