Gynecologic History, Examination, & Diagnostic Procedures T2 CURRENT Diagnosis & Treatment: Obstetrics & Gynecology, 11e YR 2013 FD 2013 PB The McGraw-Hill Companies PP New York, NY SN 978-0-07-163856-2 LK accessmedicine.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=56970832 RD 2024/04/19 AB The gynecologist needs to approach each patient not just as a person requiring medical intervention for a specific presenting problem, but also as one who may have a variety of factors possibly affecting her health. The initial approach to the gynecologic patient and the general diagnostic procedures available for the investigation of gynecologic complaints are presented here. Although other aspects of the general medical examination are left to other texts, concern for the patient's total health and well-being is mandatory.
