As a surgical resident, i found this app is a very helpful and orgnized, so you can search the particular topic you are looking for in a very short period of time. It is so very detailed and you do not wanna to spend a lot to dig into it.
I love Merck Manual and have used the handbook in practice for over a decade. I've also used the website, so I was excited to finally use the app. However, I was sorely disappointed that the app has not been updated to support Android 11. IF you download the app and don't try to update, you can still access some content and features which is why I've given 2 stars. But if you accidentally forget and try to update, the app will freeze and be unusable until you uninstall even w/ stable wifi.
It doesn't have everything, but it is an excellent pocket reference for most things and I find the information both reliable and accurate. The search function is fast and effective, and the layout of the app makes it easy to navigate comfortably. All said, this may not be the only reference material one needs, but I consider this app essential and I always have it installed on my phone.
Excellent manual for Health Professionals. Good thing is it's free!! Great for students too. Try it and you won't regret.......I
I wish I would have discovered this app sooner! Even though I am only an LPN, I've always found healthcare interesting and am always willing to learn new things. This app has it all!
I love how easy it is to find what I need when I am when I look up things I've always had the Merrick manual in print form but I love the app it's so much faster for me to find things thank you.
I'd give more stars if I could. I've never been more satisfied with an app. No ads and free complete access to all medical contents of the app. I've saved up a lot of money by not purchasing some books because my professors and this app were sufficient for those courses. I am however waiting for surgery to be added. My gratitude to all those who contributed to the making of the app. If there's anything at all that I can do to keep this app ad free and completely free, please let me know.
This was my go-to app for medical information. Articles were easy to understand without sacrificing quality of information. However, with the new update I can't finish a keyword without the app crashing. Very dissatisfied but I will re-install it once this is rectified.
I love this app. It's amazing!!! It's very very very rich in content and is very accurate. I have used this app for all my studying at school. The app also offers cross info on the specific topic you search for; which is a great help for medical/ nursing students.
Excellent reference for the medical professional. Very comprehensive set of information and "tools," updates regularly. A rather large app, well worth the space. A digital form of the Merck manual that you've used for years.
Medical student here. This book saved my life. Extremely useful. Search function could be better though. I also have the paper copy and its easier to search but harder to fit in my pocket
Great collection of clinical info, but some medical conditions not available on app.
I use this all the time for general looking things up to doing med sheets for school.
I love this book!! It's easy to read and understand!!! The knowledge inside the Merck Manual Professional is my all time favorite repository of knowledge!!!! Thank you so much I go back to The Merck Manual for information time and time again, well, at least until I memorize it, lol ... It's 5-20-21 and I still love this book! I mean, the Merck Manual pro even tells you how to approach patients in regards to their diagnosis ! If you are studying medicine , you want this book, I guarantee it!!!!
I recommend this nice manual textbook to all general physicians and other medical professionals. Merck manual specify with its throughly regular and permanent updates, its long history of editions and perfect information whenever you need......................... F. Asgarian, M.D, Psychiatrist
Easy access and reader friendly
Top-notch medical information app! Hands down the best available. As a healthcare provider myself I depend on the Merck manual as guide to enhance my knowledge of diseases etilogy and most importantly treatment options. The result is better results for my patients. You never stop learning! 👍📚🔬💊💉
Wonderful! Excellent UI and a perfect clinical companion when I need evidence-based guidance and a quick refresher on things.
Excellent resource!! Great for reading up on different disease processes in the palm of your hand. The kinked calculators are great as well.
This is a wonderful app. It is not just a textbook, it has quizzes, podcasts, cases and videos. Extremely handy. 5 star
i loved the app but this last updacte must have changed something as i can no longer utilize it. it has error mesage of not enough space. i still have >15 GB of internal spave avaible not to mention the 30gb on sd card
Amazing resource, I can't believe that it is free to use. It has definitely helped me as a PA student when I quickly need to reference a certain pathology.
Exceptional information. I have depended on this manual for at least 40 years. Kudos to all of you that have work so hard to keep this manual available and updated!
Always straight to the point and the app is very stable and prompt/fast. No annoying/useless adds
I can always trust Merck to give me the most useful info right away. I think other apps like up-to-date will have the deepest level of info but Mark is my go-to if I just need a quick refresher or clarification
Even 5 star is not enough for this concise medical textbook. Covering all topics, regular updates and most importantly it is offered for free to medical professionals and patients. Thank you MERCK
Doesnt even open. Crashes on attempt to open every time. Fix this set a price and I will gladly pay for it and so will others. Merck is an invaluable asset!
Great information for providers with matching patient education available in the consumer version. Excellent, free resource!
