Medical translation from French, German and Spanish into Englishby a professional, experienced native English-speaking translator
Why the name MR Translation?I am Michael Robson, they're my initials, and I translate Medical Records and Medical Research.
What I do
Translation
I take your written document in French, German, or Spanish and translate it into a corresponding English version. It will be accurate and convey the meaning of the original. Depending on the type of document and the intended user of the translation, the document may use medical terms and phrases commonly used by doctors and other healthcare professionals, or language which will be understood by patients and lay people.
Editing/Revision
My first job in the translation industry was as a multilingual checker in a translation agency and I have vast experience in editing/revising other translators' work. If you have specific concerns or you would just like a second pair of eyes to look over an existing translation, then we can discuss the scope of the editing/revision that you would like me to perform.
Proofreading/Checking
If you are an English-speaking healthcare professional who would like someone to proofread/check your writing, or improve your document's comprehension by laypeople, then I'm here to help.
If you are writing in English but it is not your native language, let me take a look at your work and I'll be able to recommend the appropriate service.
