Great app, interesting cases

I used this app for my physiology class and found it really made me think. I learned a lot.

houseofgodzilla ,

a good supplement but a bit expensive

overall this is a good review of physiology, certainly it is less monotonous then a straight up basic science approach. however, the price is a bit too much when considering that the app is a simple port of the book. Needs color and animations to fully justify being same price as print edition

Ok

This app is pretty useful for med students, it has lots of infos about real cases and helps them strengthen their diagnostic . Also is easy to use due to its simple and nice user interface
