Inhaltsangabe

Primary Care English is the expansion of Medical English to reach the extensive geography of primary care. It aims to be a tool to achieve a certain level to dare to practice as a family physician or participate in learning or research activities in English within the primary care setting. The reader would be expected to have at least an intermediate level of English. The text is simplified where necessary in order to keep within reach. The language of the consultation will be central to this book and its contents modulated according to real clinical practice.
