Customer Reviews

Pediatric PT

Product came as it was described-- like new. I was happy with it and it came in a very timely manner.

Great Textbook!

Campbell and the others are great authors, the textbook is easy to read and contains excellent information in an logical and beneficial format.

Great reference

My primary practice is outpatient orthopedics with just a small portion of my patient population falling in the area of pediatrics. I love this book as a reference and have found it invaluable time and time again.

An Absolute Must-Have

This book, now in its third edition, has now become the foundation of our field. In studying for the Pediatric Specialty Exam given by the American Physical Therapy Association, we, in our study group, have found this book to be an invaluable compilation of evidence-based therapy for virtually every major pediatric diagnosis requiring physical therapy intervention. We all thank you, Suzanne Campbell, for a thorough job well done.

A comprehensive overview of any subject relating to children

I have used this book innumeral times in the clinic whereI work. A must have reference for any pediatric therapist. Well worth the money if you are looking to learn more about the special need of children.
