“Great application. Fills a huge gap in the medical apps (...). Instructions are clear. The tests are easy to find and the application in general is a pleasure to navigate through. Best of all, the content is accurate and evidence based. Many texts, if not most, describe clinical tests incorrectly. This app delivers the instructions straight from the horses' (authors) mouth, permitting the tests to be performed as they were in the research. (...)”

“Great application for the Sports medicine oriented Physician or P.A. Clear, concise instructions on performing the tests, and linked video demonstrations. Fabulous. Great reference tool to make sure you are performing the test as originally described. Only medical application that I have purchased, that is actually worth it. You will not be disappointed.”
