Hello everyone. My name is Brian and I am getting ready to start medical assistant school. Can anyone recommend the best medical dictionary. I hear its between mosbeys and tabers. Thank you.

The Mosbys for allied health professionals is excellent.

I agree about Mosby's. I have had it for 7 years and still look up things monthly in it. Funny though,it was required for a class in electrolysis I took in 2001, but we were never told to get a medical dictionary for medical assisting classes. It will come in handy if your teacher,who may be nothing more than a CMA with 3+ years experience and no teaching credentials,cannot answer a question asked of her in class,which I saw time and time again.

Thank you very much. I'll check them out.

Yeah, what they said.
