My name is Paul Owens, I am a Cardiologist and volunteer in a Free Clinic on Fridays and most of our patients are Spanish-speaking. We have translators but sometimes I wonder what they are talking about when they speak to the patient in Spanish. Also, I think that if I am able to speak directly to patients in their native language, I will gain their trust, which will facilitate a more cooperative relationship.
¡Hola, Paul!
We believe that speaking the same language is showing another level of commitment with your patients.
We are here to help you!
¡Nos vemos pronto!
Many patients and their families only speak Spanish so I am excited that now I will be able to communicate better with them. When does the course start?

Awesome Haley… how did the test go?
Hello there! Am excited to be once again a part of your ten day course. Even though I do speak Spanish I wish to enhance my vocabulary and most importantly ‘medical vocabulary’ and of course to be able to have a more fluent conversation.
I am registering because, although I am a native Spanish speaker, I am not very familiar with medical terminology in Spanish, and I really want to be able to speak to the patients in a way that they understand me. I sometimes say “como se dice… and I feel so unprofessional at that moment. I want to make a difference with diabetic patients.
Are you a certified Spanish Medical Interpreter?
I’m an anesthetist and would love to be able to communicate with my patients without relying on someone else to interpret.
Looking forward to improve our Spanish!! Thank you!!
You’re welcome Jerico!

I work in a school as well as an ER here in San Antonio, TX. Even though I do speak Spanish I want to get better to be able to have a more fluent conversation with my parents and my patients. I am so glad to get to do this class for free.
Welcome to the Masterclass Patsy, we’re glad you found us online! See you online next week!
I’m a Physician Assistant and I have a lot of Spanish speaking patients. I took quite a bit of Spanish in college but have never been certified as bilingual so couldn’t use it at work. And so I have lost a lot of it. I have been working lately on improving my medical Spanish. I can usually understand most of what a patient says. For Example, I could read what Chris wrote above that they work in a Plasma center and review the history and physical for patients prior to donation. They leave work late after 7 but is able to watch videos later.
Hey Angela, great! Yes comprehension always comes before expression in a 2nd language. We’re excited to help you level up your speaking with what you know… and help you learn more! Looking forward to meeting you online!

Westwood in FWB?

I am a resident and want to work on being able to ask basic questions for a chief complaint to my patients in primary care clinic.
Sounds great, Sam. Welcome to the Masterclass!
Spanish was my minor. I’m supposed to be pretty fluent, but don’t get to practice often. I also didn’t get an extensive medical Spanish learning, so I’m looking forward to add to my skills. This course seems like it will be beneficial both for my current role as an emergency tech and in preparation for my future career in healthcare.
Yes Jacob, practice is sooo important! Glad you found the masterclass. See you online next week!
I want to communicate with my patient with more formal spanish and to pass my workplace translation test.

Soy una enfermera escolar en K-12. Hay muchas situaciones durante COVID-19 donde necesitamos hablar con las familias de los estudiantes sobre cuestiones medicas. No hablo frecuentemente en español por eso quiero empezar de nuevo.
This class sounds like an amazing opportunity to get medical Spanish. Throughout my career there has been few classes except for recently maybe that have addressed this issue.
My mother didn’t teach me Spanish,, she I guess had taken it for granted that our great grandmother who lived with us and only spoke Spanish would somehow by osmosis give us the language. Not true. I even would ask my mother, hey mom can you help me with this word or phrase? nope. no help. I taught myself Spanish, took a gazillion classes, watched tele Novelas lol, worked home health in predominantly Spanish neighborhoods. So…I am so excited to fine tune or get more vocabulary. Thank you for helping me. helping all of us.
Wonderful Claudia, so glad you found us! Welcome 🙂
I want to better serve my patient population!
Awesome Mackenzie, and we want to help you… See you online next week!
I’m a registered nurse, and I recently started working for an urgent care which sees an underserved and diverse patient population, many of whom speak Spanish. It would be mutually beneficial for my patients and myself if I was able to communicate more efficiently, so my patients feel heard and cared for. I hope to establish a better rapport with my Spanish speaking patients.
Excellent goal Taylor… you’re so right about the mutual benefit of speaking more Spanish! Looking forward to meeting you online!
I work in a hospital where there are a lot of Spanish-speaking patients. I am also planning to go on a medical mission trip to a Spanish-speaking country. It would be helpful to be able to communicate some essentials.
That’s great Rev. Williams. Welcome to the Masterclass!
I work with a large population of Spanish speaking patients and would like to improve the way we communicate.
Wonderful Negar… welcome to the masterclass!
Starting a medical Spanish curriculum at our family medicine residency and wanting to check out this class/organization as a possibility for growing our curriculum! Thanks!
Hi Lindsay, welcome! We should talk about your FM Residency Spanish curriculum. We’d be glad to help you and support you through it so you don’t have to recreate the wheel!
I’m a licensed Naturopathic Doctor and struggle through appointments with my Spanish-speaking patients. I can speak just enough to get me in trouble, but the appointment takes too long because I’m looking up words like “carbohydrates” on Google Translate! I also have a hard time with the past tense. I’m interested in the immersion program, so I thought this would give me a great first taste of your teaching style and start turning the Spanish gears in my mind as preparation.
Absolutely Greta… welcome to the Masterclass! Looking forward to getting to know you and hopefully working with you in various formats in the future!
I’m a doc recently returned to the States from many years in Japan and other parts of Asia. I’m working in Pocatello where many of my patients are Spanish speaking. I’ve been studying Spanish since arriving here but have a long way to go.

Wonderful Nye, we’re glad you found the masterclass… see you online!
I want to be an NP and feel being bilingual would be a helpful tool. I have a lot to learn, just getting back into it. I haven’t had any Spanish classes/lessons since I was in high school (10 years ago).
Hey Skye, thanks for the note and welcome to the Masterclass! So glad you found us.. we’re happy to help you get back into it :).
I work as a physician doing locum tenens – I work most often in Washington and Alaska with a fair number of Hispanic patients. I have learned some Spanish over the years, but I need help in staying consistent with what I know and to learn more.
Awesome Noel, you’re really going to like the strategies we teach during the masterclass that will help you keep your Spanish going consistently.

Soy Chris y yo trabajo en un centro de plasma aquí en Colorado donde hago el examen físico y revisar la historia antes de donación. Recentimente yo era aprobado hacer lo en Español. Yo quiero aprender más, así que yo puedo entender todas las cirugias y condiciones la gente podria tener facilmente. Con frecuencia trabajo muy tarde y desafortunadamente salir del trabajo despues de siete pero leí que puedo ver los videos luego. Dega me si hay un problemo con este.
Bienvenido Chris y ¡felicidades por lograr la aprobación de trabajar en español con sus pacientes! Sí claro, no hay problema con ver las lecciones en vivo después si hay que trabajar. Saludos,
I’m working on the Spanish for the Health Professions certificate at my university, but this semester my class is a culture, rather than Spanish, class. If I don’t have something scheduled to keep me focus, I won’t find the time for the Spanish. I work in a free clinic one afternoon each week and my Spanish-speaking patients would be better served if I could speak directly to them without an interpreter. I need repetition.
Wonderful Dani, so glad you can join us!
I want to understand basic Spanish when interacting with patients. I’d like reproductive health specific language.
Welcome to the Masterclass Stephanie! I don’t think we’ll have time to focus on reproductive health in the masterclass, but we’ll be glad to share some resources with you!

Hi, my name is Caitlin and I’m a RN on a postpartum unit. We work with multiple Spanish speaking patients and I would love to be able to provide the same care I do for my English speaking patients.

Hey Caitlin, we’re glad you found the masterclass! Looking forward to helping you take your next step with medical Spanish 🙂

Great Kesha, welcome to the Masterclass!
I live and work in the DFW Texas as an RN. I will eventually be changing my position to a pediatric home care nurse, and I know there is a huge Spanish speaking population in my area so I want to be prepared professionally and do not want to be limited to English speaking clients only. Plus knowing a second language can open up so many doors, both professionally and personally.

I work at a facility with a significant Spanish-speaking only population, but unfortunately we only have two in person interpreters for the hospital each shift. Having to use the iPad interpretation services is very frustrating. I want to be able to speak with my patients in Spanish with more confidence and using proper medical terminology!
That’s a great goal… welcome to the masterclass Jill!
I work in a OBGYN clinic servicing mostly Spanish speaking patients. I know some Spanish but really need to bring it all together and have more fluidity in conversations. I am so fortunate to have this opportunity and have it FREE!!
Hola Miranda, so glad you can join us! Fluidity takes time, but we’re going to help you line out your steps for the next several months!
I am thrilled to have the opportunity to take this masterclass. I am a genetic counseling student, and I am just coming off a summer rotation during which I counseled many patients in Spanish. I hope to use this course as a tool to consolidate my Spanish learning from that time, practice my conversational skills more, and get a better sense of how I can plan my future studying.
Welcome Alexandra, we’re so glad you’re joining us!
