Techniques once confined to subspecialty offices and hospital suites are now routine in family medicine practices, urgent care centers, and community clinics. Point-of-care ultrasound guides bedside aspirations, office aesthetic procedures have entered general practice, and skills like colposcopy, vasectomy, and joint injection are expected of the complete primary care clinician. Procedures for Primary Care is the single reference built for this expanded scope.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book covers more than one hundred procedures across fourteen clinical sections. Each procedure is presented the way a senior clinician would teach it: direct, evidence-based, and free of padding.
