Customer Reviews

I enjoy this very much

I have learned a lot reading this book. I work in medical records and transcribe dictations and this has really helped me a lot in this area being that I have no medical terminology knowledge at all. I love the CD that comes with it, you can take test over and over on it. It's awesome.

Excellent Inroductory Book

As a Sales Manager looking to get into nursing this is a great introductory book! Highly recommended.

Very informative and easy to follow.

I purchased this book to refresh my knowledge. I had enrolled in college and wanted to test out of their Medical Terminology course. I had taken Anatomy & Physiology in the past and had worked as a medical secretary in a hospital so I was looking to feel more confident with my word knowledge. This book was easy to follow and was very helpful. It has a lot of diagrams and pictures to give visual aids. I took the exam and passed.

It's a recomended book!

This book is great for anybody who study by themself without register to any medical terminology classes. It is easy to follow, understand, and remember. aslo, there are a lot of practices that help us really getting in to it.
