Care that continues across a language.
Medical records get translated at serious moments: a new doctor taking over treatment, an insurer weighing a claim, a court weighing an injury, an immigration file needing medical facts. Every one of those readers acts on the words — which is why approximation is the one thing this document cannot tolerate.
Physicians and hospitals
A US doctor continuing your treatment reads the history to decide what happens next. Translated diagnoses, procedures, and medications become clinical inputs — they have to be exact enough to prescribe against.
Insurers and claims
Claims for treatment abroad are adjudicated from the records. Clinical language rendered precisely — and consistently across the file — is what keeps a legitimate claim from stalling in review.
Courts and injury cases
Personal injury and disability proceedings put medical records into evidence. Both sides’ experts will parse the wording, so it is translated to survive expert scrutiny.
Immigration files
Medical evidence supports waivers, asylum claims, and disability-based requests. Certified translations with clinical precision are the form adjudicators can actually weigh.
What gets translated
Clinical language, handled clinically.
Medical text is its own dialect in every language — abbreviations, units, drug names, template phrases. Translating it well is a specialty, and we staff it as one.
Diagnoses in standard terms
Conditions rendered in standard clinical terminology, so a US physician reads the same medicine the original stated.
Medications, internationalized
Foreign brand names paired with international generic names — the rendering a prescriber can safely act on.
Lab values, units untouched
Results reproduced with their original units. Units are data; converting them silently is how translated records cause clinical errors.
Physician notes and abbreviations
Handwritten notes and country-specific abbreviations expanded per source convention, with notes where a reading is uncertain.
Imaging and discharge reports
Radiology impressions, operative notes, and discharge summaries translated with their structure intact.
Illegible entries, flagged
Medical handwriting is notorious. What cannot be read is marked illegible in place — guessing in a medical record is malpractice by proxy.
Before you order
What makes a medical file usable on arrival.
Scope to the clinical question
A lifetime of records is rarely the ask — the new cardiologist needs the cardiac history, the claim needs the treatment episode. Scoping to the relevant records is cheaper and produces a file the reader can absorb. Word-count pricing makes the choice explicit.
Units and reference ranges travel together
Lab values only mean something against their reference ranges, and both stay exactly as printed. A physician can interpret original units; nobody can safely interpret silently converted ones.
Confidentiality is structural
Records move encrypted, access is limited to the assigned medical linguists, and files are deleted on request after delivery. Sensitive diagnoses get no special routing — everything is handled at the same strict tier.
How it works
Records in, clinical-grade English out.
Photograph or scan it
Take a clear photo or scan of your medical records and upload it. The word count and the exact total show before you pay — no account needed.
A specialist linguist takes it
Your file goes to a native speaker who works with this document type every week and knows its stamps, layouts, and abbreviations on sight.
Reviewed, then certified
A second linguist checks names, dates, numbers, and layout against the original. Only then is the Certificate of Accuracy signed.
Delivered as one PDF
Translation, certificate, and a copy of the source in a single file — ready to attach to your filing or forward to whoever asked for it.
Pricing is by word count, per document, starting at $24.95. Records vary wildly in density — the quote itemizes each so you can scope the file to the clinical or legal question before paying.

FAQ
The questions that actually come up.
The ones we hear most often, answered by our dispatch and project-management teams.
Can't find it here?
01Are the translations accurate enough for my new doctor to rely on?
That is the standard they are built to: medical-specialist linguists translate, a second reviews, terminology follows standard clinical usage, and drug names carry their international generics. Where the source is ambiguous or illegible, the translation says so explicitly — a physician needs to know what the record does not establish, too.
02Do you convert lab units to US conventions?
No — values and units are reproduced exactly, with reference ranges. Unit conversion in translation is a patient-safety hazard: a silently converted glucose or hemoglobin can mislead a clinician. US physicians handle international units routinely; what they cannot handle is uncertainty about whether a number was altered.
03My records mention medications that don’t exist in the US.
Every drug is rendered with its brand name as written plus the international nonproprietary name — the generic identity a US prescriber recognizes. Where a compound genuinely has no US counterpart, the translation says what it is rather than substituting a cousin.
04Will insurers and USCIS accept these translations?
Yes — every document is delivered as a complete certified translation with a signed Certificate of Accuracy, the format claims departments and adjudicators file. For claims, translating the full treatment episode rather than fragments is what usually prevents follow-up requests.
05How is the price calculated?
By word count, itemized per document — starting at $24.95. A discharge summary is a modest order; a full hospitalization file prices by what it actually contains, and you see it all before paying.
06How is confidentiality handled?
Encrypted transfer and storage, access restricted to the assigned linguists, no sharing of any kind, and deletion on request. Medical files are treated as sensitive by default — no flag needed.
