This review is from: Donde Le Duele? a Spanish Phrase Book for Doctors and Nurses in Trauma/Emergency (Paperback)

I purchased this book thinking that it would be helpful to me as an emergency room nurse.....its not! The forward of this book was written by the author who explains that he is an emergency orthopedic trauma surgeon and he collected phrases for use in his practice and then turned them into a book....that is exactly what he did, so unless you are an orthopedic trauma surgeon then this book would be a waste of your money.

Many of the phrases included relate to bone injuries, forget having any questions related to chest pain, abdominal pain, or any other common emergency room complaint. Many of the phrases are redundant. The book is also poorly organized which makes finding any specific phrase or question difficult.

I would not recommend this book.
