Ratings and reviews

I really love the app. It's precise and informative. A must for any medical student who wants to be very knowledgeable and also a good guide to those who crash-read. However, this new verison seems to be so Archaic. I actually prefer the layout of the former version. Wouldn't have updated it if it didn't keep telling me "Medical Dictionary stopped working" numerous times without actually opening. That was frustrating and now imagine my disappointment on updating and seeing this layout.

A marvelous resource to have available should you require it. When installed, this app occupies 1.27 GB of my phone's memory which is the price to be paid for its offline functionality, I suppose. Regrettably, it does not appear to be moveable to the phone's SD card. Perhaps the developer could address this in a future update. I installed the mini version of this app, but it is not nearly as comprehensive. So, this full version stays. It is really very informative and quite complete.

This so far is the best medical app I've ever used, super rich content, smooth experience, I use it on daily basis , I had downloaded it when I was 1st year medical student ... Now I'm at my final year and still use it , and pretty sure that I will use it as a doctor. Thank you for all the effort you have put on this app , you helped in the process of making a lot of doctors ❣️✨ and in saving the lives of so many patients ✨❣️
