Osler Pediatric Board Reviews are designed to help you pass your ABP exams (both initial certification and recertification) in addition to advance your clinical knowledge foundation. Emphasis isplaced on evidence-based medicine and board-relevant standards of care, integrating new ideas, strategies, and treatments. The six-day didactic course includes presentations that explore the entire field of Pediatrics. The program is run in a rapid-fire format to target a larger percentage of board and practice relevant information with Q&A examples woven into each lecture. In addition to the discussions the program includes a searchable e-syllabus with all PowerPoint® presentations. The dynamic, interactive presentations are supplemented with simples outlines that contain a board range of information commonly found in standardized board examinations as well as practical guidelines for clinical practice. A clinical picture quiz is given for review and discussion throughout the course. Many of our previous participants found the course equipped them with improved diagnostic and testing strategies, a better comprehension of all major disease entities as they relate to general practice of Pediatrics, and helped them identify specific areas of knowledge weakness for further self-study.
