I came across many answers to this question
The constant one :- op ghai .!
Indeed. I still remember the cyanotic heart disease explained so well in OPG. The flow diagrams were so easy to understand. Dr Seeta Sinclair chaptered some of those topics is what I remember.
OP ghai for theory and Aruchami for practicals n postings
O P Ghai for theory and Aruchamy for practicals.
- Ghai Essential Pediatrics is the most popular and widely prescribed book in Indian Medical Colleges
- Nelson book of Pediatrics can be used for in depth understanding or for reference
- Piyush Gupta Clinical Methods is commonly recommended for Clinical postings and practical.
I would suggest “Ghai Essential Pediatrics” most widely recommended and trusted textbook for undergraduates in India and Meenakshi’s mam notes(Prepladder).
Ghai is amazing for essentials while Nelson is also good that was recommended to me by my teachers.
Also Clinical methods in pediatric by Piyush Gupta is also good from clinical point of view, not a very popular opinion though
