Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

I discovered Medical Technology in Junior High School when I read a book whose main character was a Medical Technologist (now known as Medical Laboratory Scientists). I continue to find the field fascinating.

I have worked on the bench and taught both medical technology students, medical laboratory technician students and phlebotomy students. I received several awards for my teaching (St. Louis Community College at Forest Park Teacher of the Year, Governor's Award for Excellence in Teaching, Emerson Electric Co. Award for Excellence in Teaching and Who's Who Among America's Teachers). I am pround of my students and their contributions to healthcare and the profession.

I discovered that I enjoyed writing and have had several articles, one chapter, and this textbook published. I hope to continue writing in the future.

Book is in great condition and got to my house very fast!
Also, thanks for the note! I am part of the CLS Program and will pass on the message to the other professors! I tweeted the note so maybe you'll see it floating around on the CLS Twitter page :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great textbook!

This is a fantastic textbook for health professionals, particularly for medical laboratory students and professionals. It contains great, in-depth coverage of specimen collection, specimen processing, and bacteriology. It also contains good coverage of medical mycology, parasitology, and virology. Med students might need more in-depth texts covering those last three subjects but this would still be a great overview or review of all subjects concerned.

Great book, covers all the microbiology areas of the lab. However, the biochemical for Enterobacteriaceae are different at those from other books
