Designed to help clinicians and clinicians-in-training improve their Spanish communication skills and build trust and empathy with patients, Dr. Pilar Ortega’s Spanish and the Medical Interview: A Textbook for Clinically Relevant Medical Spanish, 3rd Edition, addresses today’s growing demand for Spanish-speaking physicians and healthcare professionals. Focusing on communication needs in real-world clinical situations, this versatile resource provides basic Spanish skills, sample interview questions, relevant cultural information, social drivers of health, and more, in addition to videos of patient-physician interactions, interactive self-assessment tools, and clinical vignettes. This unique text delivers exactly what students need to enhance patient-centered communication skills, increase your cultural competence, and make better clinical decisions in their future practice.

    • Reinforces learning in a logical sequence, with each chapter building on the previous one, aligned to the flow of a medical interview
    • Contains two new chapters on digital health and the sexual history as well as new content regarding caring for patients with disabilities, demonstrating empathy, and establishing trust; new telehealth scenarios; new vocabulary covering recent diseases; expanded coverage of cultural practices, gender-inclusive language, and social determinants of health
    • Covers how to best use interpreters in clinical practice, and includes new content on the appropriate integration of digital technologies and AI in multilingual healthcare settings
    • Includes interactive self-assessment tools and practice exercises that mimic real-life clinical situations to help students gauge and hone their health communication skills
    • Provides access to videos of real-time patient-physician exchanges, with and without Spanish subtitles, to help improve pronunciation and listening skills
    • Discusses cultural competence and humility as crucial elements of effective communication and building a rapport with patients to improve overall care
