Doody's Core Titles® 2022
"This eighth edition continues the tradition of its predecessors and offers a solid foundation in office gynecology to trainees and practitioners. Few books focus on gynecology alone and instead couple obstetrics and gynecology together. This book's focus on gynecology is a strength for readers."
