These files were written by Mark Goodarzi, M.D. They are based on a review of recent medical literature and current clinical practice guidelines. The files are intended for use by health care professionals as medical references. Use of the information contained therein for patient care purposes is done strictly at the discretion of the health care provider. These overviews are of a general nature and may not apply to all patients. Medical knowledge is constantly evolving; these databases will be periodically updated to reflect advances in the field of endocrinology. 

The files below are in the DOC format. To read them on a Palm or Visor handheld computer, one must first install a program which can display DOC’s (such as AportisDoc, TealDoc, SmartDoc, or CSpotRun (the last one is free)) which are available on Palm software sites).
