Customer Reviews
Great studying tool!
I’m studying for an OSCE right now, and this has been a really good reference tool! Love when you start off with a case and then go into the pertinent history, physical examination, diagnosis and recommendations for the condition! Thank-you for the great work!
Love it
Love listening to Kevin and Demitri! You guys are awesome. Keep doing it !
I want to love this but what is with the audio?!
This podcast seems to have good Canadian content, but the audio is so poor it’s hard to listen to...I was hoping more recent episodes had better audio quality but it seems to be the same.
