Physical Exam Essentials App Reviews

I bought two of the applications at $3 each, and while I find them useful, there is a pop up EVERYTIME I launch the application that advertises the four apps this guy made. I think it is ridiculous to pay for an app and still have advertisements staring me in the face when EVERY SINGLE TIME I decide to use the app. I would not have purchased them had I known about them.

Stick with your doctor, the app is a joke

A must apps for doctor. It just help them with a check list what to do when checking patine.

The app has the disclaimer popping up constantly (very annoying). The material is very basic and presented in a boring manner. This is nothing but a bad textbook section concerted to an app. Apps shoud be more than what isn't read but is available in the library. The layout of things is poor. I just don't like it when someone takes their bad 1st year med school notes, scans, and creates an app. Upgrade this app please.

great for revision, and tips, best app ever made :)

Just enough info to make it worth your while to use it a clinical setting. Great, quick reference tool

useful, easy to follow, very clear, concise

I love this app. Comprehensive. Helps organize thoughts when dicating or just before seeing a patient.

extremley good info in this app, recommended :)

To the users complaining about the advertisements, try downloading the update. I contacted the developers about this and they fixed the issue. Never had such a quick reply from any other developers!

Nice app! :D happy i bought it!

Pretty great for a quick review of exam techniques before seeing patients. Great for students.

I should have read the reviews. I was totally bummed that there is no musculoskeletal section. I mean, seriously, what kind of a physical exam app doesn't have some of the hardest to remember exams--musculoskeletal??

Great review at your fingertips. Very detailed and helpful physical exam app.

Really needed this for reference

very good content in this app! reccomend it to anyone.

I just bought this app 5 minutes ago because I was looking for a quick review of physical exam. I first looked at the abdominal exam and right away I noticed that the picture with the 4 abdominal quadrants are labelled incorrectly. Very disappointed! I don't know if I want to continue using it, there might be other information that's incorrect!!!! Waste of money! It would be a great app if the makers would pay attention to basics like the correct labeling of the abdominal quadrants! Who knows what other incorrect information I will find if I do decide to go through it. Want my money back!

Every student should have this app!!!

Great app, very informatibe and useful

Very helpfull has a new m3

i expect this product for a long time, thanks

This app looks good EXCEPT where is the musculoskeletal exam??? Please add this part of the exam - there are so many MS exam techniques for specific body systems, and being able to do a quick check here would be excellent. Thanks!

working ok but don't do serious thing with this you must have a doctor

really really good app :) great for medical studies :)

This app NEEDS a muscular-skeletal exam to be complete!!

really good app, loads of immense content, great tips, and i love the images!

Great if you ever need a quick review of a basic exam. Has the basic exams for pretty much all systems except for musculoskeletal. Each one is not very long making it a quick read, but has just enough info for a high yield review. Definitely not comprehensive, but who's going to read a comprehensive guide on their iPhone? That's what textbooks are for! This app is strictly for on-the-go reading. Great 5 star app!

This app is design simple for user. Download and use it now!!!

this app has many functions good. This is the "must-have" reference app for anyone studying, practicing or interested in medicine

but you will need a real doctor to see what going on !

Great app for doctors, would recommend.

This is far worst app ever, very insuficient for studying, revising or just to recall. STAY AWAY. I would like a refund! I have many handouts are better than that, I knew I shouldn't have wasted my money on this!

Not advise for any kinda human referance

It's a solid app for beginning practitioners. Need to update the app overall and there is no musculoskeletal section. Please update

it's great app. this app is very usefull for me. i think everybody should buy it, and they phone will be perfect if it has this app. thanks for sharing

This is one of my favorite apps but it's so u*** and full and looks like it's designed for cadavers. Please make your app up to par in terms of design on functionality it's perfect. Please optimize for iOS7

The text is too small to read. cannot change the font size.

Maybe you’re in medical school with exams coming up. After gallons of coffee and many sleepless nights spent pouring over notes and textbooks, you still wonder if you’re going to make it. I am content with it. I hope it would be useful

Quick and easy. I guess if it had more detail then it wouldn't be a "quick reference" but that's why I'm glad they added wiki and google links to keywords.

This app is terrible, missing MSK altogether and many important tests for each body system. Also, each of the sections looks like a poorly formatted Word document. Ugh. What a waste. I should have listened to the other reviews.

This app is very useful and convient. Physical Exam Essentials is not a comprehensive medical reference. Rather, it is a handy overview resource that is perfect for medical students, pre-meds, health professionals and anyone who practices or has an interest in medicine. This app is very works great. Highly recommended!

I am a nursing student. I get annoying reviewing a textbook for assessments, but I'm finding this little app fun & interesting. I enjoy the rationales behind the actions.

This app is a phishing scam. when you open it, it has links to several known phishing scams and when you actually click on the physical exam link it just takes you back to the App Store to the description. there is no product and frankly I'm surprised that Apple does not check into what it is selling in the iTunes store. In looking up the reviews it says that they rate their own stuff so that their ratings are very high but it's not from actual users. And when you google search most of the reviews are positive but it's just copies and pasted from their website. look up the Iowa State daily which is a newspaper where it talks about college students who have been defrauded If I could rate a zero I would.

Where is the musculoskeletal section in this app? I would not have bought this if I realized this were not included.

I paid for this app. Why are you not allowing me to download it?

Not a complete physical exam app without msk section. It is one of my weakest and least studied aspect of physical exam and hence why I need an app for reference.

Maybe you’re in medical school with exams coming up. After gallons of coffee and many sleepless nights spent pouring over notes and textbooks, you still wonder if you’re going to make it. I am content with it. I hope it would be useful, i like it

New iOS update and the app no longer works

very detailed and helpful physical exam app. Anyone can learn about general physical exams with the help of this app

Good

Currently using this app as a reference in my PA class. Not as detailed as a textbook but it works for what I need it to do. Great download!

When you first open the app there is an advertisement to buy more apps. As soon as you close that add then the app is available. Its an excellent app for easy studying while you have a few spare minutes.

This is the ‘must-have’ reference app for anyone studying, practicing or interested in medicine.

however i am not a doctor use this app quite hard for me !

I have no idea what these other reviewers are talking about as I know for a fact that this Is NOT a phishing scam. The product is definitely real as I have been using it for the last year!!. Apple would not let it past their rigorous review process if it was fake... Yes, there is an ads page that appears occasionally but you can close it by tapping on the X at the top right corner of the screen. I'm writing this review because ive contacted the developers about their other apps before and they have always been quick to respond and very very helpful. It really bothers me to see other users ignorantly bashing a quality company that actually cares about their customers just because of their own paranoid beliefs and inability to follow instructions.

working great ! easy to use love it !

I am not a medical practitioner or a medical student, but the information provided in this app is really interesting and good to know. At least, I know I won't be totally clueless when I go see my doctor next. Hats off to the developers!

Does not have musculoskeletal system

I like this application - it's accurate when compare with Byte's textbook, but you missed musculoskeletal system assessment. Would you please add this part with specific tests for knee and hands diagnostic?

Awful! Extremely bad. Don't waste your money. VERY basic material.

This is such a nice app to job and easy to use .. Well worth the price Thanks to the developer for doing an excellent job!!

I recommend this app to all medstudents and med practitioners. Its not the perfect and most complete P.E app but its the best P.E. app for its value. An app away for brushing up your PE skills. If its not too much to ask I would love for it to have a MSK exam. Thanks to the developers for making this app.

I use this multiple times a week. It’s comprehensive and simple to navigate! A must buy!”

The app has great links for anatomy and physiology. You must know to click off the ad page at the opening of the program. The ad page at the opening of this nice program is bad and ennoying distraction that does not help the program at all because it makes a bad 1st impression Overall: this App with good graphics and great links is informative of Medicine.

Totally fraudulent app. No content. Just ads for more apps

Maybe you’re in medical school with exams coming up. After gallons of coffee and many sleepless nights spent pouring over notes and textbooks, you still wonder if you’re going to make it. I am content with it. I hope it would be useful

No wonder this app developer didn't provide much in the way of insight before purchase. I want a refund - it is the principle! I was PA, a NP, and now a MD who is also an educator in a medical school residency and fellowship. This app doesn't fit any basic need at any level. Unfortunately someone unsuspecting will be making a purchase for what has been expressed by others - it is worthless.

App doesn't work. Read the review below.

I'm a medical student and found this app really easy to follow! A good quick reference!

thanks alot for sharing

Great choice to understand physical examination in a very detail way

I can find all of this info free. I thought there'd be more to the app. No details, no explanations. Really? I've wasted my money! :( this app needs a trial/demo so we don't get suckered into buying something we won't benefit from. USE CAUTION before DL'ing this one. Make sure it's all you need because in my opinion, this is more like a simple preface. Incomplete structure.

The material in this app is way way way too basic to be useful to anyone with even any basic training in medicine. Not useful at all.

Great and simple study tool in my first year in med school

To the users Evaluate about this app, try downloading the update. Anyone can learn about general physical exams with the help of this app

this software operate good and frendly to use, i feel like this app is my own doctor, It can help me improve my health
