Customer Review: Excellent Medical Dictionary
I have used the Dorland's Medical Dictionary for 25 years working in a hospital transcription position. This dictionary makes looking up words easy and in most cases I could find what I was looking for in here when I could not find it in the Stedman's. I am buying books for working at home and this is one of my first choices.
Customer Review: The best medical dictionary.
Dorland's and Stedman's are the two premier medical dictionaries. Any physician or other person who requires frequent reference to medical definitions should probably own both (I do). Both books have occasional errors; each book has terms that the other lacks; and each book has some definitions that are superior to the those in the other. However, if you purchase only one, I recommend Dorland's. In my opinion, Dorland's has definitions for more terms, better definitions and fewer errors.
Customer Review: The "Bible" of medical dictionaries
As a medical transcriptionist, I have used many different medical dictionaries, but for me, Dorland's has always been regarded as the "Bible." I can always count on it to be accurate in listing all variations and extensions of words. To the person who complained about the quality of the paper of the dictionary and all sorts of "non-essential" things, I can only say look to the essentials of what a dictionary is supposed to be -- accurate, informative, easy to use, and a source you can rely on it -- and Dorland's provides all of those things.
