Hello everyone,
I am starting my lpn program in the fall. I was hoping to pick up a book on medical terminology over the summer to familiarize myself with some of the terms. What books have you used that you would recommend?
Thanks!

Not sure about a book, but this website is great for a quick reference!
Common medical terminology. Suffix, prefix, and root words.

I would go online for Medical Terminology quizlets. it was of help to me before I got the recommended text book. Once you familiarize yourself with suffix, prefix. the rest will fall in place. All the best
