Awesome stethoscope

Good quality at a reasonable price for home and semi professional use.
Love the colour.
Really sensitive as I have hearing loss but can hear very well with these.

Perfect fit

As ordered and perfect fit for my wife.

Perfect Fit

Exactly as described - good quality, genuine Littman rubbers delivered quickly.
Some initial issues with PayPal were also quickly sorted and at no financial cost to myself. A trusted source for medical equipment.

Considering various Leatherman tools, the Leatherman Arc is one option, but the Wave Plus offers a convenient size for pocket carry while still providing a comprehensive set of desired tools.

Great little resource book

Full of great info to help you remember all the acronyms (IMIST AMBO, METHANE, AMPLE, etc) plus good prompts for patient questioning, reading ECG's, and medical terminology. Well worth it.

Perfect 21st gift

We purchased the Leatherman Raptor Shears as a 21st gift for a paramedic student. It came highly recommended by a fellow medic and was very well received by the recipient. It’s a lifelong gift. 😀

Quality

Quality better than what I was getting from ANF.

Amazing book

Book is well above my knoweledge required, it is an amazing book and i would reccomend to anyone keen on getting into ciritical care, ive got my last placement in an ED for 6 weeks and reckon this has improved some things i didnt even know existed, fully reccomend it to anyone in the critical care field

Nebo DaVinci - a great torch

I am impressed by the quality and capability of this torch. The combination of water-tightness and zoom lamp is usually not very successful, but in this case it works. The size and brightness is just right for camping: not to big, not too bright. I also like the twist adjust for the brightness as I don't have to continually cycle through the various modes like other torches.
Price from the Paramedic Shop was good, and delivery was timely.

Amazing bit of information.

I am a volunteer in Western Australia and wanting to become a paramedic.
I wanted to know how the ECG's read and knowing what it looks like and honestly I have some knowledge in how. to read it.

Thank you

Great

Fast shipping super happy with my purchase will by through this company again

Great product arrived in good tome

Amazing and quality friendly service thank you!!! Informative book ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Brilliant

Fabulous torch - light, easy to hold and absolutely brilliant light. The battery lasts for ages as well. Recommend highly

New you bueat tool

This new suction unit is the best piece of equipment we have ever purchased for our son who cannot dispose of his phlegm he coughs up. This unit is compact enough so we can place it on the back of his wheelchair and take it out and about for when he needs to use the unit.
