We
medical transcriptionists do a lot of search, research, reference work etc., to make our transcript perfect. In
medical transcription, we rely heavily on the
internet, the vast source of information. Hence won’t it be a great
advantage to have all those reference links clustered in one place for an item-wise search? As I use the following sites to fetch information, I feel it will be of great help sharing it with my fellow transcriptionists. You may bookmark this page for accessing it in your routines. This is not a complete list, if you do have any suggestions or any additions, please mention it through the comments form, so that I can update this list.
