### 5/5 — Excellent app for students and newly joined EM staff member!

*2022-09-14*

Very process-oriented text and aide-memiore for any medical student or newly-qualified doctor working in emergency medicine. Each topic is short, sharp and straight to the point - it is all about working out the definitive diagnosis and, with interactive flowcharts and clear, concise instructions and explanations, mostly in point form, tables or lists. It is a very good app for any student doctor or nurse. Rather I will say, it is must to have app that will not be out of place in any A&E department as a very reference for a new staff member.

### 5/5 — Very useful app!
