    20. Escucha más allá del idioma

    Today I would like to remind you that your patients often have a serious problem understanding, even in their own language. Yes, speaking Spanish with them or having access to an interpreter is excellent and very necessary. But have you noticed that sometimes, even when we overcome the language barrier, you still have the feeling that they are not understanding you? Or that you don't understand them? Spanish is my first language, I have the training and experience to navigate well in a medical environment, but still, many times I feel that something is off.

    18. Síndromes o enfermedades culturales

    Do you know what "mollera caída" or "empacho" are? What are Folk Illnesses or Cultural Syndromes? These are illnesses that don't appear in traditional medical books but are believed in by people in certain communities. They have their own causes, preventions, and cures, which can be very different from what a conventional doctor might think. But what's interesting is that these illnesses aren't just physical. They often come with a mix of religious beliefs and symbolism. So when someone suffers from a folk illness, it's not just a physical ailment; there's a whole story behind it. ⭐️ If you want to know more about this subject or improve your medical Spanish, join for free my group Medicine in Spanish with Ana GT and receive free resources weekly ⭐️

    15. Antecedentes médicos: cómo preguntar por la historia médica y familiar

    In this episode, I'm going to highlight the importance of taking accurate and complete medical histories from patients, regardless of how long it has been since the procedures or illnesses occurred. We will go over the most important questions to ask for collecting information about medical and family history in Spanish and how this information can be critical to making informed decisions about diagnoses, treatments and medications. The medical history is an essential aspect of patient care, as it helps healthcare personnel make informed decisions about diagnosis, treatment, and medication. However, patients often overlook the importance of their past medical procedures and illnesses, assuming that they are not relevant to whether they feel well today. This can be detrimental to your health and can lead to misdiagnosis or inappropriate treatment. 👉 if you want to get a weekly free Medical Spanish mini lesson directly in your inbox, join my group Medicine in Spanish with Ana GT  here. https://www.medicineinspanish.com/recursos/
