Spanish medical terminology texts and materials

[p960 at BELLSOUTH.NET]

Donna,

Here are some resources that you can use:

1. Spanish for Health Care Professionals by William C. Harvey edited in 1994 by Barron's Educational Series, Inc. I bought it at Border's. The ISBN is 0-8120-1730-7

Barron's Educational Series, Inc.
250 Wireless Boulevard
Hauppauge, NY 11788

2. An Introduction to Spanish for Health Care Workers: Communication and Culture by Robert O. Chase and Clarisa B. Medina de Chase edited in 1998 by Yale University Press

Yale Language Press
ISBN 0-300-07077-2

3. Go to this website where you will find various resources. This site is aimed at translators, interpreters, and linguists. It sells various kinds of dictionaries in various areas. I have received books from them in a reliable and affordable manner. The site is kind of difficult to browse, but once you get familiar with it, you will locate health-related resources, especially, in terminology.

I hope this helps.
