ALL YOU SHOULD NEED FOR PMR RECERTIFICATION
i've been in private practice for 10years, but have been out of PMR practice for about 8 years. i used this text exclusively for the recertification boards and passed with flying colors.

Demos Medical Publishing, 2009
Truly an Ultimate Review
I used this book as my primary source for the Neurology Boards & the last two RITE exams with fantastic results! I added little bits here and there and used the text to summarize topics into tables and charts as well as made my own flash cards from information on the pages of this book. I bought many of the new board review books and this was the best prep for the boards!!! Kudos to the authors.
