Pros and cons of Medical Spanish: Healthcare Phrasebook with Audio app for iPhone and iPad

Medical Spanish: Healthcare Phrasebook with Audio app good for

I am so happy with this. I was about to buy a book or a cd on Amazon, but this will come in handy. It has all the basics that I need. And even has a conjugation part :) its cheap and worth it!!!!
Dont know if its just mine, but the glossary is messed up. Its alphabetically incorrect. Other than that it looks awsome, Im training to be an interpreter and this will be a huge help.
This app is the cats a*s! Despite my very basic Spanish, Ive rescued my attendings nearly daily when we needed to ask important questions on rounds in the hospital, saving our interpreters and patients a lot of time. audio is articulate and clear, making this app the best 7 bucks Ive spent. as far as improvements, although theres a great list of verbs, I would like to see a section on conjugation. otherwise, its thorough for any healthcare provider.
I have used this app so many times and everytime it works awesome!!! I have utilized it with multiple doctors to assist with their assessments n h&ps n i think I have help sell about 15 installs of this app! We all seem to love it!!! Extremely helpful n triage and basic physical assessment of the acutely Ill patient!!! Love the ability to bookmark the phrases I use most!
This application is very easy to use, and informative. Amazing!
I dont speak Spanish, so as a medical resident, this app has been indispensable for rounding. Using it on a daily basis, I can get the meat and potatoes from my patients in the clinic, the ER, and the wards. The app does have a gazillion things or phrases one would need, and theyre all organized nicely. Overall excellent, very user friendly, w/ sweet audio for correct pronunciation (which helps people like me) - even my attendings were impressed. Muchas gracias for making my life easy, and my hospitals interpreters lives easy tambien

Some bad moments

Argh, cant believe I just wasted my money. This is not user friendly, I cannot get the audio to load, do I need wifi to use this???? No bueno :(
The app has partial audio and is miss leading as advertised. It has very little related to dental care which is the reason for my purchase. Not worth the price.
Just purchased this APP and re-downloaded it but no matter what I do there is no audio!!! Extremely disappointed. Not sure who to contact to fix the problem. Would not recommend this App to anyone.
Should have read the reviews. Was looking for something that would help in the pre-op, anesthesia, and post-op areas. Very limited application. Definitely NOT worth $5.99.
After initially working fine, the app no longer plays the phrases through my iPhone speaker. The app support page is useless.
