Welcome to Primary Care Notebook – a concise synopsis of clinical medicine focused on the needs of the primary care professional, which aims to help you make fast, evidence-based decisions.

Primary Care Notebook’s content database was originally started while the core authors were medical students in the 1990s, and it became a reflection of our learning and knowledge as we progressed through medical school and into our working lives.

Today, the site is used by tens of thousands of primary care professionals across the world (elsewhere, the site is known as “GPnotebook”). If you haven’t done so already, I warmly invite you to join the Primary Care Notebook community, where we aim to save you time and keep you up to date.

Healthcare professionals and medical students in the US can register for a free account here.

We hope you find Primary Care Notebook helpful, and if you have any comments or criticisms, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Best,
