indispensable info
DSJ.

I’ve long been dependent on the FPNotebook website, using it probably 3x/week to help manage unusual cases (and some usual ones; for the life of me I can’t memorize the hyperthyroidism algorithm). This app is a polished, professional interface for devices. Thanks much for an amazing compendium of practical information for the doc in the trenches! The author is clearly undercharging for this info.


Scam
Queue using

The auto "renew" auto "charge" is such a scam... Never even used the app for moooonths and it still gets your money! Such a hassle to cancel to uuuuggghhh!!!


Misleading

I just realized I had been charged not a one time cost, but monthly. I never even used it.


Really enjoy it

I have a variety of resources I use in Primary Care and while there is a lot of overlap FPN sometimes gives more options than others like 5MCC. It is very affordable unlike UTD. It takes a little time to figure out how to maneuver around the app but overall I love that it is bullet points rather than paragraph form like other resources.


Best free general medical reference in existence.

App is a wrapper abound the web site, which is a labor of love with well managed ad support. Site is particulary strong on emergency medicine but covers a very wide range of topics. Updates are better than most other references. Surprisingly strong anatomy reviews. Aimed at physicians, but readable by laypeople with science or clinical background. Up To Date is comparable but costs hundreds of dollars a year. I can't tell what one gets for the In-App purchases. It might be a good way to contribute to the site, I'm going to research that.


Supreme resource

App is so good. Fantastic for common hospital problems and how to manage them. Also the clinical pearls that are added gives it that charm that makes it fun to read. Finally being able to search many topics is the cherry on top. So useful.


Love this App

I am in a rural university based FM residency which due to our geography results in constant cases which become very complex requiring specialties that we do not have. This app and website has been amazing when trying to manage these patients both from an acute and chronic standpoint.


Disappointed
feedback for you

FP notebook used to have a free option, with an option to buy more updated information. As of yesterday or today, they appear to have eliminated it. ?


Seriously?
Ben Jackon Smith

They used to a have a free option and now they went on a subscription model. Psh! Uninstalling. I would have paid for updated info and “Pro Version” I don’t use it enough to warrant paying $20 a year for it when I can google or there’s other apps....especially when various sections take you to outside information anyway. Nice try! But No.


Don’t update!!
Mabinante

After you update they will REQUIRE you to have a paid subscription.
