This book offers a comprehensive overview of common medical conditions that present in women's primary care clinics. Medical conditions often present differently in women than they do in men and as a result, primary care providers should be familiar with how to identify and treat these conditions. This book provides a collection of common medical conditions and aims to educate the reader on how to approach and manage such conditions. Chapters cover non-infection conditions, infectious conditions, and health maintenance in women.
Common Cases in Women's Primary Care Clinics will be a valuable resource for primary care providers, internists, family practitioners, nurse practitioners, physical assistants, medical students, and other physicians interested in women's primary care conditions.
