A very simple yet elegant program to assist physicians to recall eponymous disease names. I have been using it for years. I think eponyms will remain in fashion, they remain a way to naming/remember certain medical entities. I doubt Prader Willi syndrome will ever be called genetic syndrome 12345. Such an evocative eponym that one. Eponyms are also still used in MCQ and face to face examinations. Six stars out of five. Please continue creating this wonderful resource ! Doctors around the world sing the praises of this excellent program. Keep making this program simple and low in file size !

Even though the emphasis in the last few years has been away from the use of eponyms, they exist in our literature and in common usage, and will be around forever. I want to congratulate Dr. Yee on an excellent job. As an attending physician, I have no problem admitting ignorance when someone mentions an eponym and then looking it up on my Sony Clie. Now if we could do something about the pseudo-eponyms. I recently had someone present with "Cuell" syndrome. I even thought that maybe it was Krytonian and named after that famous physician "Q-El". I wracked my brain, looked it up, and finally determined that they meant "Q-L" and that I then had to further narrow it to mean "quadratus lumborum" syndrome. By the way, she didn't have any signs and symptoms consistent with the syndrome.

Great software! As a new NREMT-B, I have been looking for software like this to help enrich my knowledge base.

I am able to run this on my newer TRGpro using OS 3.5.3. without AutoCF installed, but it will not run on my older TRGpro also running OS 3.5.3. but with AutoCF installed. I believe the incompatibility may be with AutoCF. You might try temporarily removing the two AutoCF files from RAM (after saving copies on the CF card) and try running this fine program if you haven't already done so.

Each version has been better and more inclusive than the prior one. Sometimes I scan through the list between patients to see if there is something I can learn. Thanks, Andrew.

New version is great with new look-up feature. Just the right amount of info about each entry; pretty comprehensive list. Thank you to the designer!

Excellent for medical professionals struggling with the obscure names for common diseases.

This is a very handy reference for those hard-to-remember names. It's a cheap and compact alternative to a real medical dictionary. And it's free!
