English for Medical Receptionists & Healthcare Admin B1–B2

About this book

Every patient starts at the front desk.

Patients are often worried, in pain or in a hurry. The words you choose at reception and on the phone help them feel safe and reach the right care. English for Medical Receptionists & Healthcare Admin B1–B2 shows you how experienced receptionists and admin staff handle real situations in English, from the first hello to the hardest call, while keeping patient information private and never giving medical advice.
