In Reply to: If you only bought 1 stedman's word book, what would it be? - MrsChippy
my opththalmology, orthopedic and cardio/pulmonary ones are used a whole lot. I have 16 stedman books. Biggest surprise is how much i use the pathology/lab one, for various tests, diseases, diagnoses etc. if you are going to take advantage of your discount opportunity (bet i had the same previous job!), get more than 2 if you can, and ebay them when newer versions come out -- or get some off ebay if you cannot buy new or current...build your library!! Having and using your resources make you a more valuable employee!!

I had the Stedman's Surg and Equip book
as well, and sold it after a month on E-Bay! There is just no comparison. I believe Stedman's surgical books are divided in 2 parts - naturally the one I had was never any use. The Surgical Word Book is HUGE, and it literally has everything and anything in it, alphabetically or categorically. When I first started MTing 20+ years ago, its all I used as well, and it was tiny then compared to now! It is so much more than surgical words - I mean it, it has nearly everything I ever need to look up. If I don't find it there, I go to Stedman's, and last resort google. Its so worth the investment!
med-surg floor
Medical-Surgical floor. The hospitals I worked when I was working in a laboratory would have it as Medical-Surgical Unit/floor.
med-surg floor. It's not a proper name. NM

Agree - Tessier Surg GREAT!
I love the Tessier Surgical Word Book, too. One other nice feature is that the new edition will lie flat. Just turn it to the page you need, and it stays right there.
Ortho is finite and fun, ETC is interesting, Ophtho is awful! If you like Surg...
Lots of companies will like YOU.
just wonder if it could have been other-equip interference?

Want to Buy Lanier TXC Card. Please see post on Equip. Board
I am in need of a TXC card and peripherals in excellent working condition. I only need one, and it is for my own use, not for resale.
Hope someone with an extra will see my post. Thanks

Stedmans Med & Surgical Equip words and Tessiers Surgical Word Book (3rd Ed). I'd be lost
without them.
Stedmans Med $ Surgical Equip words, Path and Lab words, and Tessiers Surgical Word book (3rd
edition). I never buy drug books anymore. Waist of money in my opinion. New drugs come out so often, it's best to use the web.
