I was 'raised' on Stedman's, the usual medical dictionary at my Med School. When I recently bought a Taber's as a gift for a future colleague, I was surprised at the easier 'navigation' possible with Taber's (the tabs are excellent) and I was impressed with the quality & quantity of the illustrations. I believe this is the best choice for both health care providers and consumers.

I continue to use this book, after 5 years in private practice. It is fast, concise and still amazes me at its depth.

I've just recommended it to my brother who is begining his EMT training.

I find Taber's to be the most comprehensive and accurate medical reference and recommend it to the students in my court reporting course. We also use it in our court reporting office.

This dictionary is great for college students. It is lightwieght, sturdy and yet has many detailed pictures to clarify the definitions

I just want to say this book has been the best help. I am a student of medical terminolgy and it has helped me so much. I recommend this book very highly. Thank you Kim

I used this book while in school for Medical Assisting and it was so helpful. I still use it to this day when someone in my family tells me what the doctor said in Medical Words and translate it into everyday language for them. It is a hady book to have even if you are not in a profession to need it.

I would have wanted to know that before I purchased the dictionary that it did not have a lot of the medical terminology used. I needed a wider range of words used on a daily basis or for learning and research purposes. I believe this version is a little dated because some things I just couldn't find at all. I did like the graphic pictures they were great.

It was exactly what I needed and I got it extremely fast. It was also in good condition.
