It’s been 10 years since you first started to see our “What’s The ‘Take Home’?” feature every month in CONSULTANT. Our goal then, as it remains today . . . to bring you real-life clinical cases that keep you up-to date on the latest thinking-and that offer a “takehome message” you can put to immediate use in your daily practice.

Our goal (now and for the past half century) is to bring you practical information that you can put to use in your practice right away. And we depend on your feedback about whether we’re meeting that goal. That’s why we regularly send out surveys-to find out what you want to read about. We also attend the annual sessions of major medical societies to talk one-on-one with our readers.
