Our Team of Expert Medical Translators Have Exceptional Attention to Detail Personal | Professional | Precise
Medical documents often contain sensitive personal information and specialist terminology, so must be treated with great care by translators. Whether you are a pharmaceutical company selling your products internationally or a patient receiving health care abroad, Dixon Associates has a team of expert medical translators covering all medical disciplines and over 400 language combinations.
We have over 50 years of experience translating all kinds of healthcare and medical texts and will ensure that your documents are translated sensitively and precisely in all circumstances.
Medical Expertise for Precise, Specialist Translations
Medical texts are often highly technical and contain specialist terminology that must be translated with utmost precision, since the slightest inaccuracy or misinterpretation can have severe consequences for patients and medical professionals. Even mistyping a single letter can completely change the meaning of a word – for example, ‘hypoglycaemia’ (low blood glucose) versus ‘hyperglycaemia’ (high blood glucose). In addition to their specialist terminology, medical records also contain highly sensitive personal information about patients, so they must be handled with discretion to ensure that the information remains strictly confidential. Our team of expert medical translators have exceptional attention to detail, and our robust three-stage translation, editing and proofreading process ensures that your translations are completely accurate every time.
Expert Translations of All Types of Medical, Healthcare and Pharmaceutical Documents
There are many different types of healthcare-related texts, each of which has unique conventions and requirements, and so requires specialist knowledge, skills and experience to translate accurately. Our expert linguists and specialist software can work with all types of text and file formats, including:
Marketing materials for pharmaceuticals and medical products
Pharmaceutical package leaflets, packaging and documentation
Hospital medical records, doctor’s letters and prescriptions
Medico-legal documents, e.g. autopsy/post-mortem reports, health insurance claims, etc.
Pharmacovigilance reports
Clinical trial documents, e.g. consent forms, questionnaires, etc.
Medical and life sciences research papers
Professional Interpreting for Medical Appointments
When a patient accesses healthcare in a foreign country, it is common for them to require the services of an interpreter to allow them to communicate effectively with medical professionals. These situations can be particularly sensitive and vulnerable for patients, so medical interpreters need to quickly build rapport with their clients and provide reassurance that what is discussed will remain confidential. We have a team of professional medical interpreters covering over 400 language combinations who are able to facilitate medical appointments in person, over the phone or via video call, so you can rely on Dixon Associates to find an interpreter to meet your specific requirements.
