To reiterate my pleasure at discovering the BMA library service, I would just like to say that for the first time since I became a member of the BMA I really feel that I am getting some real benefit out of my membership. GP
Many Thanks for your help. Exams are fast approaching but the BMA library is proving very useful and helpful, thus taking some of the stress away!Student
Great service. Thank you, thank you, thank you.Professor Consultant General surgery
The BMA library, and specifically your help, has probably just saved my bacon in terms of dissertation for Fellowship (Emergency Medicine) exams - it's genuinely made the years of membership worthwhile this week! Many thanks. Speciality registrar A&E
