More than medical translation

You need more than just a translation.

You need solutions that help you convey your message loud and clear to a global market of over 496 million Spanish speakers.

I provide a bespoke service that will ultimately save you time and money, freeing you up to focus on other strategic objectives. Whether that’s getting published, ensuring you have well-written clinical trial documentation for your patients and study staff, or making sure your test adaptation is as good as it can be.

That’s all thanks to my background as a healthcare professional teamed with my experience and specialist training in English-to-Spanish medical and psychology translation.

Highly specialized disciplines call for highly specialized translations.

Those working in health and behavioral sciences will be well aware of the strict guidelines that need to be complied with. They also know that the stakes are high, so any translated content must be of the highest quality.

And not just any translator will do. You need more than a medical translator. You need a translator specializing in your specific fields.

I specialize in clinical research documentation, psychometric assessments, clinical psychology and neuropsychology, and the localization of website and app content—all fields with a particular context and rigorous requirements to follow.

Compliance with these requirements underpins all translated documents, whether they’re:

  • Tests for clinical or educational aims, or for human resource management
  • Clinical outcome assessments for clinical research
  • Patient-facing documentation
  • mHealth technologies
  • Medical device instructions

Highly specialized

Certain translations call for certain translators. And finding a subject-matter specialist who’s also a linguist is no mean feat. I’ve devoted myself to my specializations, not only as a translator but also as a healthcare professional.

High degree of intercultural awareness

Thanks to my personal, cultural, and educational background, I understand the subtleties in different Spanish variants, and the contexts on both sides of the Atlantic.

Certified translator

I’ve been certified by the American Translators Association through an exam with a pass rate of less than 20%. I’m also part of several other professional associations, related to both translation and psychology.

Flexible, professional, and reliable
