Lynn Owens: This has helped me with conversations about health. There are family members who are seen in hospital for any variety of reasons and this follows the conversation and process. Then offers new words review. Using this book, I have been able to complete an hospital admission in Spanish with only a few mistakes. Everyone of my patients are so helpful in my learning process.

Puzz Lehrman: There aren't many activities (like fill in the blank or composition), but it's a super-comprehensive look at medical terminology. About 400-500 (or more) words and phrases per bulky chapter. I just wish there were more worksheets, activities, or quizzes. Everything has pronunciation guides with it.
Another drawback, sometimes they don't give the English word with the term, like when they label the parts of the head and body, but you can't always tell exactly what they are pointing to and the word isn't a cognate. So then you have to go to the glossary, and the word isn't always in the glossary so you turn to Google Translate instead. Luckily there's only a few parts where this happens.

rkim: Poorly organized and poorly presented. The last 30 plus pages is a Spanish-English glossary double spaced, what a waste. Don't waste your money on this like I did.
For medical Spanish I would recommend
McGraw-Hill Education Complete Medical Spanish: by Joanna Rios. This book was a much better purchase.

あんまん大すき: 医療分野のスペイン語を勉強するのに購入しました。スペイン語の基礎の部分も書いてあり、発音も英語が母語の人向けにアルファベットでそこらじゅうに書かれているのが、ちょっと目について読みにくさを感じました。ケース別の会話集なんかも掲載されていますが、ベーシックな会話が多く、専門用語もあまり豊富ではないので、初心者向けという感じです。

C. Mao: Workbook for active learning of Spanish. This book is ordered very well beginning with commonly used greetings for building rapport with patients. Then moves on to the basics. Very easy to understand and learn with this book.
Basics of grammar included in bits and pieces through the chapters so you learn when you need to learn to start using Spanish immediately and are not overwhelmed. Also helps with pronounciation basics so you can learn to speak any word you see in Spanish correctly.
No complaints about this book so far. Am using it and learning with it. It would be improved by an audio CD, but not completely necessary.
Bottom line: Highly recommended for the beginner and even for Spanish speakers needing a touch up as the glossary in the back is very good as well.

David Todd Traylor: I thought that this book gave a great introduction to Spanish used by health care workers. I will definitely use it as a reference guide moving forward.
