Great!

I love this wrist and hand app! The wrist and hand is so complex and I had trouble making sense of it in school, but this app helped break it down for me. I'm so thankful to have it in clinic to reference and refresh my memory.
Awesome app!
Grateful SPT
Wow! This app is seriously so helpful! Thank you for creating this app series. I have been able to use it as a PT student in order to help organize my thought process for figuring out what is wrong with my patient and how to go about treating it. Not only is every step of each examination procedure explained in writing, but there is also a video with audio for each procedure. Highly recommend this app!
Useful for DPT students

As a DPT 2 student, this app allows for the recognition of patterns in presentations that gives me the confidence to treat on clinical rotations. It's a great resource to guide rational and clinical thinking as an early clinician. The ability to replay skills and interventions is beyond helpful. This app provides the cognitive supplement to your psychomotor practice. Enjoy!
Learning made easy for PT students!

I am loving these Clinical Pattern Recognition apps! As a PT student these apps have been extremely helpful in putting all of the orthopedic information together according to each region of the body. These apps have videos that you can look at with the right techniques and special tests performed correctly as well as information regarding each of the common injuries found in each body region. It also includes a patient education section that gives you an idea of how you can better educate your patient on what they are experiencing and how long it will take to heal and what not. So thankful for these apps and looking forward to seeing what else Dr. Wong and his colleagues come up with for these apps! :)
