I really enjoyed this video, Dr. Rahimi was just excellent in providing very good answers in a very simple easy to understand words, unlike most doctors, they like to use difficult medical terms that is very long and hard for people to even pronounce, and off course don’t know what they mean. Thank you .
Thank you, Samir. We love Dr. Rahimi!
Dr. Rahimi was very easy to understand even though she has an accent. I am concerned that I will interpret for a doctor that I cannot understand their English. I guess that communication with the provider is the important way to go. If doctor gets frustrated with me, I can only do the best that I can.
Thanks for your comments, Linda! You might want to check out this video, which highlights the “clarifier” role: https://www.voicesacademy.com/focus-on-clarifier-and-culture-broker-roles-in-medical-interpreting/
it was a very helpful talk, they went over some essential points that face us upon interpreting, I liked the accent of the physician as it was very clear. it added to me a lot.
Powerful education material and mentoring. Please keep it up
Amazing talk! This is a provider who knows how to properly utilize an interpreter. Would love to work with someone like DR. Rahimi in the field.
Excellent video, lots of good advices for interpreters. I really appreciate it!
I went back to the end of the video and was able to take the quiz. 🙂
Thank you Michelle for what you’re doing for us interpreters!

learned a lot, loved the video. Thank you
Great video! Thank you, Dr. Rahimi for your clear explanation. Very understandable. I’d love to provide interpreting service for this kind of Dr.
I enjoyed this video however, the sound was quite muffled. The other videos I have watched had much clearer sound quality.
Thanks for your feedback! We cannot replicate the sound issue, but will monitor in case anyone else experiences a problem.
I work in the healthcare field, UCD. Even as staff interpreters, we’re not supposed to be alone with the patient for liability issues.
Thank you for the information provided in this video. It contains helpful tools to establish the practice in patient care.
