Perfect summary

By Selma M. on 17. December 2021 for Thyroid Cancer with Case

This lecture is very clear and simple. It is informative and well structured and the lecturer articulates well and is not boring at all. It is good because it highlights all the important facts to remember about thyroid cancer without going into too much details.
