Featured Review
It was an excellent presentation on the conservative management of knee osteoarthritis. The speaker gave a clear and concise approach to the assessment and management of patients with osteoarthritis of the knee. The question and answer section at the end was excellent.

An Update on Evidence-Based Clinical Management of Knee Osteoarthritis Webinar
This course discussed how many popular activities could enhance the lives of people with Parkinson's. Z Altug searched the research literature to back up this information. I liked that quite a number of his articles are from non-English journals. (which they often get overlooked). My takeaway message is that when working with patients with Parkinson's, you can be creative and look at treatment options with a much broader focus.
