If you had to go out and find all the information presented in these lessons, it would take months, and then you’d have to sort through to get just what is relevant to front line urgent care and occmed practice.
I know because medical directors of large programs have told me they’ve already spent months tracking down some of this stuff only to find it so well presented in a half-hour lesson!
Most of the research you’d have to do would be full of too much information. I’ve already cut through all that and succinctly present everything you need to know for all your occmed exams and worker’s compensation injury care.
