Orthopedics

Hello!!  I noticed that you work for orthopedic doctors. I have 12 years of orthopedic experience and have worked in the environment. I am looking for additional part time work.  Do you have any suggestions as to where I can find orthopedic work. I hear it is not easy finding ortho transcriptions.  I would love to hear from you.  Thank you!!

Thanks,

Has anyone ever used either or know anyone who has?   Would appreciate any comments.  I need to see someone for my scoliosis which I know is progressing, and the pain is giving me fits right now.  Thanks. 
I type a lot of letters, would Dragon 10 Preferred be something that would work well?
Does anyone know if the Dragon 10 Preferred would work for just typing letters?  I was thinking of investing in that product but worry that it may be a complete waste.  Anyone hear or experience this particular product? 
I think is called preferred vendor? Facility gets certain monetary breaks to only use one

Express Scribe users.....what are your preferred Playback settings?.....sm
I am starting to use this and would like to optimize the settings.  TIA
Personally, I preferred a KVM box that had a button I pushed to switch back and forth. SM
I had one where you had to use a keyboard macro to switch back and forth and I could never remember the macro and it was a pain.  Now I have a PengHong (I've never heard of them either but it works great!) which is a very simple silver box with two buttons PC1 and PC2.  It also came with two sets of cables.  It was pretty much i-d-i-o-t proof which was exactly what I needed!
i was taught opposite, lol, but then at another company they preferred all disc; wide varieties. n

Never did TrimSpa, etc. just talking about dieting in general. Slow and steady is preferred way

spelling
I believe you mean 'almighty'.  The way some of you people mispell basic words, I'd hate to see the transcription work you do.
spelling
it is plasma PEROX. Perox is an acronym, therfore some people do all caps and some people just put perox.  if you do Google search for plasma perox you will find it.
Is doc spelling it out, i.e., A-L-M-A? sm
or saying what sounds like alma? I'm pretty sure it's posterior "element". I transcribe these all day and can't think of anything else that would apply here.
Still not sure of the spelling but know it
is prichutto (again spelling)..also a Portuguese favorite!

SPELLING OUT or not.

Okay, I was taught to spell out everything under 10, but I am hearing that is wrong.  Was I taught wrong or did it change or am I doing it right.


Thanks in advance!


spelling
I used to have a doc that kept spelling N-A-R-E when he wanted one nostril and I kept putting NARIS.  I am sure he thought I was wrong.  I wonder if he had a TESTIS or a TESTE.
doc's spelling sm
Oh yes, have had simple English words spelled, but never anything like an eponym from some dead surgeon that is 17 letters long!
Spelling

Doc dictating "I will order a single dose of Zofran for her nausea".  He is even kind enough to spell it.


S-O-P-H-R-A-N !!!!!!


spelling
Spelling is and has always been my weakest link. I've been a Transcriptionist for nearly 10 years. Knowing my short coming, I over compensate. When I first started I had a dictionary and medical speller in each hand. Of course there was spell check too. Transcription can be done even with the character flaw of not being able to spell. Remember, I'm the one who transcribed for the FBI before computers, word and spell check. You just have to be certain everything is spelled correctly before you hit "send." Go for it Mom. I'm living proof it can be done, and I'm not only a Mom and grandma, but I recently applied for social security.
Spelling...sm
I have been known to use the incorrect word from time to time on this website, but I can tell you that in working, I pride myself in knowing how to spell every term that comes my way. I look it up and LEARN IT as I go along.

When I was first an MT I was no hot shot speller. I am now and I can spot spelling errors in more places than work or a website.

I am surprised that you don't take any more pride or interest in your work than to say you don't need to be a great speller! I go so far as to look up procedures I don't know, anatomy I am not familiar with and disease processes that are new to me. I can't mindlessly transcribe in the vacuum I call my office, not worrying about whether or not I can spell the words correctly and with no clue about what I am doing! I make an effort, always.

Perhaps this is why I work part time and I mean PART TIME of 25 hrs a week and I made oh so well above the average MT income stated in a post below. You get out what you put in.

sorry about the spelling.  I just do not think it's OK to make remarks about what some people hold close to their hearts.  - Many people.

spelling errors
I have spelled so many words wrong and each time I do I fix it with autocorrect.  I just figure that I spelled it wrong once, it will happen again.  Some words I have spelled wrong so many different ways you would not believe, but each time they are corrected for me---saves lots of time. 
spelling errors
My worst one is osteopenis instead of osteopenia.  I put that right in my autocorrect.   
I thought spelling out 1-9 has always sm
been the rule? As least it has been with us and I have worked for MQ for 23 years. Also, that is the way I learned it in school!
Sorry. Spelling error..
I mean adjust.
Altsheimers ? I never seen this spelling before.

Canadian spelling?

Do you think they will pay for my spelling classes??? lol

AND spelling......gotton=gotten...LOL...

Tori Spelling
They showed Tori Spelling as one of Kat's friends/family.  Now she might be able to pull some strings! 
Tori Spelling
I was thinking that maybe they put Katharine's friends and family under her name by mistake because when she showed "famous" people they put thier names and they didn't do that with her. Of course, I didn't see who she was sitting next to so I could be wrong.
Spelling of MD names?
If you have a clue of what state they are in, I like: http://www.dr-411.com/doctorsearch.asp
thanks for the spelling lesson....sm

thanks for the Italian language tip.  I never said I was Italian-American, though my best friend is.  *LOL*


Have a great Sunday! 



 


Bayscribe spelling
Yep, I'm in the same boat.  I do not use their shortcut program; I use my own Shorthand.  I just could not make myself switch after I tried it out for a few days.  So I put her corrections in my ShortHand program.  I don't know how you permanently save them in Bayscribe--ask your supervisor??? 
My doc keeps spelling something wrong
I know it's wrong and I've been spelling it correctly but he keeps spelling it wrong (as if you say "You st*pid transcriptionist, quit spelling it the way you've been spelling it! I'm a doctor!") so I guess I will go ahead and spell it his way.  I hate it though.
Most important I think is spelling

Not the spelling police, but I thought your post was cute!  Seasoned????  How about proofing your typing?  Just kidding  .  I'm joking!!!
