From the reviews: "This book presents an extremely practical approach for residents and internal medicine specialists to answer specific consultation requests concerning patients being prepared for surgery. ... All consultants and residents can learn much from this book. ... This is clearly one of the best books on perioperative management. I highly recommend this to clinicians, attending consultants, residents, OR, ICU, and postoperative nurses, and others such as pump technicians. There are numerous pearls for all." (Vincent F. Carr, Doody's Book Reviews, March, 2013) "The Perioperative Medicine Consult Handbook comprises a concise overview of issues in the perioperative management of the medical problems of patients. ... provide a quick reference of steps to take in given situations with relatively light discussion of the evidence or rationale behind the action. ... this handbook would serve as a reasonable quick reference for a junior trainee seeking to function in a perioperative consultative service." (Rob Brown, Canadian Journal of Anesthesia/Journal canadien d'anesthesie, Vol. 60, 2013)
