HandLab Clinical Pearls
During my many years of treating patients and teaching, I have developed some "tricks of the trade" or "helpful hints" which I call Clinical Pearls. I'd like to share them with you. We periodically send out new Clinical Pearls via e-mail only, so be sure we have your current e-mail address! I don't want you to miss out on receiving these pearls. Previously e-mailed Clinical Pearls are provided below. Sometimes, it's the little things that really make a difference!
