About Us

Our
mission
The best and worst part of Emergency Medicine is the rate of change. It guarantees that our job will always be exciting, but also places high demand on the ability of the physician to learn and accumulate information as well as rapidly incorporate it into their practice.
We make studying easier, more entertaining, and less painful.
Here at EM Board Bombs we tell you what you need to know. We rapidly condense information and present it in a concise format that we believe will impact your practice.
Our content delivers highly tested material in a variety of ways in order to best help you stay up to date, ready for boards, and not cramming at the last minute for a shift or a test.
