This Spanish/English Medical dictionary is the most comprehensive and thorough one I have owned. Well worth the cost if only for reference. No matter what area of the health care field you specialize in the question or answer can be pretty much found in the book.
It is broken up into different sections.
-A useful dictionary of medical terms for Spanish speakers
-A useful dictionary of medical terms for English speakers
- Grammar sections called Conversion Tables which includes - a quick section of common root words, verbs, prefixes and suffixes relating to diagnosis and symptoms etc..- this section is very dry and most people will bypass it.
-Very brief section on accenting/pronunciation - would be better to type in the word in the computer and search on the net how to pronounce a word than use this book
- A Communicating with Patients section devoted to medical questions/phrases for all types of exams- very helpful and comprehensive.
-Short section of Spanish and English- consent and authorization forms (such as for surgery, tests) I think any office with a large Spanish speaking base will use these forms.
-Finally a color photo section of the human anatomy which delineates tissue, organs etc. in Spanish and English- very straightforward and useful.
Thoughts
I would really just use this book for quick reference. Without having much knowledge of Spanish all the Conversion Tables/Grammar sections are too much work. I think the main sections of the book that are helpful are the: dictionary, common phrases/questions, and labeled color anatomy areas.
The one big gap is that this book really doesn't demonstrate how you pronounce the words correctly.
