remember that docs traditionally use the term "ring finger" to indicate the finger between the long and little fingers - it's naming a specific finger, not the name of a finger condition

Per Gregg Reference (of grammar, usage, style, etc.), is lower case--master's degree, bachelor of arts degree, doctorate-- when used generally like in your example. But capitalized when used as a title, e.g., Jane Doe, Doctor of Philosophy.

Could "Overreactive lispossum" be "overreactive specimen?"
Originally, I was thinking "overreactive splenism" which I would edit to "overreactive spleen" but diagnoses are usually NOT listed with lab values, except maybe as a statement "consistent with..." so that probaby would be wrong, although abnormal cells listed are found in hypo- and hypersplenism.
In any case, just thoughts for future since this is a day or 2 later than original post.
Also, I saw serocytes in lab terms, and assume it should be "spherocytes." At one of my very first temporary transcription jobs at a laboratory, I had mispelled "spherocytes" and "schistocytes" and doctor whose report I typed had me come back to his office and look at slides to see the cells so I would remember in the future.
Have a great day.

Subject: For future reference, have reports similar to this quite often. I do transcribe them verbatim, this way there is no finger pointing on what we as transcriptionists take as a "liberty" in interpretation.
If it is ever in question, they can go back to the dictators original dictation (if available) and see that is what he/she said and they are directly responsible for the content of their reports.
Hope this helps.

Subject: I trust Tessier before Stedman's and for 25 yrs
Back in the early 80s I loved Stedman's but I found way too many discrepancies, even called them once and they said if we find any other discrepancies to feel free to call them and let them know because WE are the MTs and they need our input.
However, I prefer Claudia Tessier's Surgical Word Book, Vera Pyle's Medical Terminology book, and then the internet where you can find the manufacturer's website and see the CORRECT spelling.
Just my humble opinion....JMHO....
and we all can agree to disagree too....
