A Practical Manual to Labor and Delivery

I wish I'd found this at the start of my intern year. It offers more context, obstetrics focus, and more up to date information than the red book, with more thorough explanations of how to do things basic things like perineal laceration repairs, OB ultrasound, and cervical exams. It is full of things like this that are essential to functioning on L&D but are glossed over in textbooks and may or may not be taught to you by busy residents and attendings during your initial OB rotations. As you might expect from the title, it contains no gyn surgery stuff.Source: current Family Medicine resident

I have been a nurse for eight years but am new to OB. This has been a great resource for me.

Fantastic for CDI reviews if you have limited L&D experience or just want to double-check what you know. Gets you up to speed quickly. Well-formatted.

Dr. Deering is an amazing provider and teacher. If you interested in the field of OB this book is a must.

Excellent book for nurses to use on a daily basis.

Perfect condition! Very excited!
