Founded in 1979 by Dr. Stephen Goldberg, a practicing physician who taught medical students for 25 years, MedMaster is THE publishing source for students in the healthcare fields. MedMaster addresses the student challenge of mastering an overwhelming amount of material in a short period of time. The “Made Ridiculously Simple” series for the basic and clinical sciences, and USMLE (Board) review, presents carefully-selected information in a concise, enjoyable manner, often with humor and memory aids, emphasizing concepts and understanding, rather than rote memorization. Our books strategically aim to facilitate retention through understanding and reduce stress. While our materials are updated continuously by our +185 authors/contributors to ensure accurate medical knowledge, the core material has had staying power for more than 40 years. At MedMaster, we strive to promote student success; to provide the necessary resources to facilitate course test preparation as well as USMLE (or board) mastery, while ultimately providing the understanding necessary for an enjoyable intellectual pursuit and successful clinical practice, thereby reducing stress!
