4 Star Review!
"This book gives primary care providers a strong foundation of cardiology. Pediatricians can better triage patients, have appropriate expectations for the cardiology consultation, and be better prepared to interpret the recommendations of the consulting cardiologist or have an informed discussion with the cardiologist about the patient."
