It asks real legitimate questions in the form you would ask as a doctor and has the really important questions along with how to pronounce and in the Arabic writing. I'm a medical scribe and the phrases they do have at least have been great. Def def recommend to literally any physician. Please let me know if I can help out with suggesting new possible phrases for the Arabic one! Thank you! :) ### 1/5 — What is the point? *2019-06-30* If your patient can read, great. But it is pointless to have a talking foreign language app only in ENGLISH! I was hoping for one more like MediBabble. This doesn’t help at all. ### 3/5 — Interesting app, needs more than one Chinese dialect *2015-09-29* I downloaded this app, hoping to use it during a doctor's visit with my mom. The app's description states that it supports Chinese, but did not say which dialect. FYI, the current version supports Mandarin only. Please add Cantonese! Thanks. ### 1/5 — Don't buy *2014-12-16* There is no patient to provider interaction available. ### 5/5 — Not generally acceptable for use in the USA *2014-09-14* I say generally. Don't get me started on medical regulators, they would let a patient die if their friend the pathology chair said that the patient was just fine. ### 4/5 — Arabic *2013-12-09* Arabic language please When you add Arabic language I'll add 1star more and I'll share your app ### 4/5 — So far, so good *2013-07-07* Hopefully I'll never have to make use of this app but it looks & sounds good! ### 5/5 — Really useful when overseas *2013-06-26* Seriously helpful app. Went on vacation recently and my medical condition flared up. Used this app with the doc and he was able to understand what I had, my medical history and I was able to understand what his medical advice was pretty clearly. Helped me out in a pretty bad situation. Thanks y'all ### 5/5 — Great app for translations *2013-06-19* Lots of languages and sentences, audio is a great feature. Excellent tool for translating my medical visits when I travel. Easy to use. ### 2/5 — Missing a lot *2013-05-21* I am a doctor in NYC. And we have a lot of patients who don't speak good english; indian, chinese, indonesians, iranians.. These are the languages that should be added.. And people from those countries don't speak english clearly.. Add those languages and we have a great app.. And yeah.. It is the biggest app on my iphone.. I could just use google translate and save 150mb on my phone.. ## Frequently asked questions about Universal Doctor Speaker ### What languages does Universal Doctor Speaker support?
