Rating: - what else can I say
What else can I say about this book? I hope they update it sometime soon because there is a lot more that needs to be added but if you only have ONE reference book for medical transcription -- this is the one! Because it is completely alphabetized, no categories, no sections, it is the easiest way to find medical terms. It is essential for beginners and advanced transcribers alike.
I even love the weight of this book in my hand. I love everything about it. You will not regret buying ... Read More
Rating: - Sometimes you only need the spelling
It's easy to see why this book is a favorite among medical transcriptionists. I would also recommend Dorland's Medical Speller for writers---any kind of writer from fiction to technical---editors, reporters, and even advanced Scrabble players.

Rating: - Dorland's Medical Speller rocks!

Rating: - Dorland's is a Dream !
Dorland's Medical Speller is a must for every medical transcriptionist. Even though this book is in dire need of new publication because so much has been added in the last 9-10 years, it is in constant use in our hospital medical records dept. It has become so worn from use that we have had to punch holes in each page and place them in a 3-ring binder, BUT it keeps on keeping on !!
Rating: - Top of the line reference book for medical transcriptionists
I have been a medical transcriptionist for going on five years and I have used this book more than any other reference book I have. It has more "word power" in a single volume than any other I have come across and is well worth the price!! I started working in a hospital as a transcriptionist and then branched out in other areas of medicine when I went to work for a national company and this book has been a very big help in that transition when doing unfamiliar work types. If you are in the medical ... Read More
