Como un intérprete médico es muy importante tener herramientas cómo está a mano! 10/10 ojalá pudiera agregar opción de traducción con hacer 2 click sobre el nombre de la medicina!

I always ask the doctor the what, why and wherefores of any prescribed drug, and the expected or anticipated results. Then I consult the appropriate Farlex references regarding medicine, medical and nursing information. At 73, it’s better to be fully informed than unpleasantly surprised. It’s not about trust (although if there’s reason for doubt, switch doc’s!) but informed decision making.
