During a typical consultation, a provider has approximately fifteen minutes to interview, examine, diagnose, and appropriately treat each patient. The History and Physical Examination Workbook is a must-have resource for developing these skills in the classroom or in self-study. Providing clinical practice in the art of performing consultations through the use of flow models, this workbook encourages students to develop a logical approach to obtaining patients chief complaints through the use of scenarios.
