Everyday Medical English: Real Phrases for the Front Desk and the Clinic Floor (Coming Soon)

Working in healthcare is hard. Working in healthcare when English isn’t your first language can feel overwhelming. Most medical English textbooks want you to memorize confusing terminology meant for surgeons. But what if you just need to know how to ask a patient for their insurance card, or how to explain a routine blood pressure check without scaring them? We are putting the final touches on a two-part practical Medical English program built for the real world.

Join the early bird list below.
