MEDICAL ENGLISH BOOK

[Annie Tsai]

I WANT TO LEARN MORE MEDICAL ENGLISH COMMUNICATION.
有人有接觸過相關的書籍嗎?
例如常用的醫學表單填寫ˋ常見的醫病對話(非一般對話,較進階的)?
我曾經在AMAZON找過一些相關的書籍 但是很多都沒有內容大綱
希望有接觸過的人能夠介紹一些實用的MEDICAL ENGLISH BOOKS!

THANKS!!

That happens to be related to my major, i got "Harper's Biochemistry" and Goth's medical pharmacology". you can borrow them if you are interested, which is not probable...

Maybe you should ask Willie, he's a doc.

May I ask if you are intending to sit exams such as OET?

Hi annie,

I've a list of acronyms on medical terms used in Aust if you need it.

I'll try to compile them within 7-days if I can (quite busy atm, so can't make it any faster, sorry). I will post it as reply to this thread.

I'm not sure these acronyms are used widely in hospital documentations.
But I will double check for you with my MD friend (he's in Seattle right now, but will be back to Australia next week).

I will also try to find so actual forms they use in Aust hospitals. But It might be a bit hard due to patient confidentiality.

By the way, I'm in Aust at the moment, in case you haven't noticed.


cheers

Hey annie,

One of my nurse friends replied to me 4am in the morning. Luckily, she sent me two files of abbreviations that hospitals use.

I can't list them in this forum (copyright and security issues).

So, I will send it via e-mail. Please send me a private message of your e-mail address in the forum and I will send them to you asap.

Please don't share them around. There might be legal issues.

cheers.
