Medical translation

Postby sujee » Mon Feb 20, 2017 12:48 pm

I have an appointment this Wednesday at Hospital clinca in Malaga. Whilst my day to day Spanish is OK I wnat to be clear about the results of my biopsy and the subsequent treatment, prognosis etc..
Can anyone tell me how i can obtain a person able to translate at this level? I know this doesn't give much time for reply but the appointment on arrived by phone so I don't have much time myself to look into translators.

any advice would be gratefully received.

Have you asked the hospital ? H~ospitals often have translators available, I would imagine their medical vocabulary would be pretty good.
