Medical translation is a patient safety issue
A mistranslated medication dose, a misrendered diagnostic term, or an ambiguous patient history note creates real clinical risk. Translation errors in medical records have caused adverse medication events, delayed diagnoses, and incorrect treatment decisions. These are not theoretical concerns. They are documented outcomes of using general translators for clinical content.
Our medical translators have backgrounds in nursing, pharmacy, clinical research, medical laboratory science, and hospital administration. They translate into their native language. They know what the source text means in practice, not just what the words say.
Clinical documents we handle
We translate across the full range of medical and clinical content:
- Patient records: discharge summaries, operative notes, consultation letters, referral documentation
- Diagnostic: radiology reports (X-ray, CT, MRI, PET, ultrasound), pathology reports, laboratory results
- Pharmaceutical: drug information sheets, patient package inserts, prescribing information
- Clinical research: study protocols, investigator brochures, informed consent forms, CRFs, study reports
- Regulatory: FDA, EMA, and COFEPRIS regulatory submissions, pharmacovigilance reports
- Hospital administration: policies, procedures, credentialing documents, accreditation materials
Serving Texas hospital systems
We have a working relationship with hospitals, long-term care facilities, and specialty clinics across North Texas. Our clinical record translation services support patient care for Spanish, Vietnamese, Arabic, Mandarin, and Korean-speaking patients, among others.
For HIPAA compliance, files are transferred and stored only over encrypted connections. Translators are bound by project-specific confidentiality agreements covering all patient data.
