This review is from: Speedy Spanish for Medical Personnel (Speedy Language Phrase Books) (Spanish Edition) (Paperback)
I just got back from a medical mission trip to Mexico and this book was great for initial questions. But this isn't good for the details of problems, especially neurological problems and gastrointestinal. Frequently I ran out of questions and had to use a translator to finish my H&P which whas frustrating for me and the patient. Fortunately, by the end of the week my Spanish was much better and I had memorized the translator's phrases so that I didn't use this book as much. It does fit nicely in scrub or white coat pockets.

This review is from: Speedy Spanish for Medical Personnel (Speedy Language Phrase Books) (Spanish Edition) (Paperback)
Maybe I was in a hurry, or totally on Mars when I ordered this, but I must have missed where it states that this is a PAMPHLET! So, I was pretty steamed to find out that I spend OVER eight dollars on a pamphlet (including shipping). I thought I ordered a paperback BOOK - but it's a paper flip PAMPHLET, that you can probably find at any college bookstore for 99 cents!!

Waste of money...,

This review is from: Speedy Spanish for Medical Personnel (Speedy Language Phrase Books) (Spanish Edition) (Paperback)
I should have listen to the previous reviews as this pocket manual being rather worthless. Because indeed it is worthless, while it is divided into specialty sections, there's translations of common questions and uncommon questions, but not enough info to obtain even a simple history. I would suggest people looking for a span-eng dict. invest in something more thorough even if it is a little bulkier in the pocket.
Most of what was included in this pocket guide could have easily been obtained from just asking spanish speaking personel in the workplace.
