Precision where every detail matters
Termwise provides precision-critical medical and life sciences translation and revision for European businesses and institutions. We help preserve clinical meaning, terminology and the intended purpose of your documents across languages.
From medical reports and insurance-related files to patient-facing information, we agree the language combination, subject expertise and review requirements before starting work.
Documents we translate
- Medical reports and discharge summaries
- Consultation notes, test results and case records
- Medical documentation for insurance and assistance claims
- Patient instructions and health information
- Medical and life sciences reference materials
- Related professional correspondence and supporting documents
Languages and specialist expertise
Our core Western European language combinations are handled in house. For other combinations, we work with personally vetted, experienced translators with relevant subject expertise.
Termwise offers translation to and from all 24 official EU languages. We confirm the language combination, subject matter, target country and review requirements before accepting each assignment.
Your terminology and guidelines come first
Your approved terms, instructions and reference documents guide the work.
01 Your references
We establish your glossary, style guide, approved wording and project instructions as the references for the assignment.
02 Medical terminology
Diagnoses, procedures, medication names and abbreviations are checked against the context and recognised medical references. Unclear terms are raised for clarification.
03 Consistent language assets
For recurring work, we can maintain a termbase and translation memory to support consistent terminology across related documents and updates.
A defined translation and revision workflow
Agree the scope
Confirm the intended reader, use, target country, languages, deadline and required checks, together with your reference materials.
Translate and revise
Assign the appropriate specialist translation and review steps, with attention to clinical meaning and the intended reader.
Complete the checks
Check terminology, dosages, units, dates, laterality, negation and document consistency as agreed for the assignment.
We flag ambiguities and conflicting information for clarification throughout the project.
Details that need particular care
A dosage unit, a missing negation or a left–right distinction can change the meaning of a medical record. Dates, measurements and the sequence of events also need to remain clear across languages.
We check these details against the source and apply the agreed country and document conventions. For patient-facing information, we also pay close attention to clarity for the intended reader.
Auditable quality
ISO-controlled workflows with defined checks. A signed Certificate of Accuracy is available on request, documenting the files, professionals, checks and approved version.
Confidentiality
Your documents, reference materials and language assets are handled confidentially throughout the project.
One-year guarantee
We correct errors attributable to our work free of charge for twelve months after delivery.
