As an ANP in training, I appreciate the work that went into this. Many thanks.

Thank you for this. You give a thorough breakdown for each part of an H&P which makes it easy to grasp and retain. I would love more clinical lectures such as this.

Thank you for this video. My medical school never formally taught us how to present our findings. It has resulted in a very stressful first clinical year.

The topic choices for your videos have been great. I'll be watching all your future videos.

This is an awesome presentation and has stood the test of time

I really find this helpful. Our program requires 3 generations under family history.

Thank you Dr Strong. It is important video but it could have split into 2 to keep attention span. Lecture like this trigger PTSD for me. :)

hi Dr. Strong, i've seen a number of different ways to write the H&P especially on the Assessment and Plan sections. For example, some do not have the summary statement, and instead uses that for the Assessment section, along with the differential diagnoses and explanations. They then have a separate section for "Plan". Others I've seen combine assessment and plan together, and have a format somewhat similar to what you covered. As my rotations come up, I would like to have a consistent way of approaching the H&P, so i am wondering if you have any advice on this. Thank you!

Sir could you tell me which edition of Harrison's principle of internal medicine is best and easy to comprehend? Currently I am reading 19th edition but i find it very difficult and also cumbersome because some of important topics are to be read from E book.
