Customer Review: A must for dermatology residents
I received this book compliments of Ortho Dermatological as a first-year derm resident. I read it before mock boards in the spring and I was amazed at how many questions I got just because of this book. I would not have mastered the presented syndromes by reading about them out of standard derm texts.

The key features of findings listed by system and the excellent illustrations are very conducive to learning the material. There could be more syndromes included (Watson’s, Dysplastic nevus sydrome, etc.). Also, it definitely needs updating. The quick pace of new knowlege (especially in the area of identified gene defects) kept me busily making notes in the margins before the next mock boards.

Pediatric dermatologists are going to need a more comprehensive text but for residents, this is an essential tool for mastering these disorders and passing the boards.
