A propósito de querer ser de primera consulta


Volviendo ya de mis vacaciones, y volcándome de lleno a lo que es la búsqueda de trabajo, aún así seguiré actualizando esta página.

A propósito de ser profesionales de primera consulta, uno de los principios básicos para ejecutar esta tarea es saber discriminar cuando un paciente es de nuestras competencias o no; es decir, cuando un dolor lumbar es de origen mecánico y no infeccioso, renal, menstrual, etc.. por ello les subo este libro que anduve buscando por bastante tiempo y unos amigos de USA lo escanearon al fin.

Product Description:
Written by a leading expert in the field, this comprehensive reference text enables users to properly screen for medical disease to make an informed diagnosis.
