Wrist pain and injury: Generating a Differential Diagnosis through directed physical exam and investigations. A review of common important injuries and their treatment
What's in it for me?
"I've heard Dr. Goetz speak several times, and learn something new each time. He gives clear guidelines for recognizing key signs of serious trouble in hand in wrist injuries. For example, in a condition that may initially appear routine (i.e. mallet finger), look for X, Y and Z to tell you that your patient has a big problem (or requires a specialist referral). In addition to reviewing common conditions, he'll also outline his clinical exam which I think we'll all find useful and interesting." - Andrea Reid, Education Manager
