Hola!

I am also a nursing student in NYC and I stumbled on this thread b/c I'm looking for a Spanish Medical Terminology course as well. I took Spanish in elementary school through college and lived in Mexico for almost a year so I am comfortable conversing in Spanish but I am looking to build my vocabulary in Spanish medical terminology. I was doing research in an ER last year and was flagged down by physicians needing Spanish translation. I was OK doing it, but I would like more guidance in it.

I am wondering if anyone has taken that Beth Israel course. what is it like? Is it mainly for students who are beginners or is there a course also for students who already speak Spanish and just want some medical terminology?

I haven't had much luck finding any courses geared towards ppl who already speak Spanish so I am thinking i might have to go back to Mexico or another Spanish-speaking country to perhaps take Medical terminology with the native speakers who want to become medical professionals. But i'd certainly prefer going to a class here since I will be in school for another year!

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!!
