ORTHOPEDIC REFERENCES - ANOM MT


Posted: Mar 26, 2010

I am going to start doing orthopedics next week and I am just wondering does anyone have any reference websites they would share.

Thanks in advance.

Here's a couple of easy, good ones - HelloKitty

A lot of Ortho terms are repetitive. Personally, I found it to be one of the easiest specialty fields to learn. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Good luck to you!

Good luck! - Ima MT

I've turned to this site quite often for ortho words, especially OPs, and found many of the words I'd been looking for out there. Here's the link.

I have had NUMEROUS MT jobs and I usually "jump ship" when things get bad, work runs out, etc., and it has gotten to the point where I have no references that I feel would say positive things.  Does anyone else have this problem?  I am actually trying to get a job in the "outside world" but everyone wants "references" and it is hard to explain that these transcription companies are not even in my same state, they no absolutely nothing about me, so it makes it very difficult.   ...

About References. MT Over 25 Years And Have None
Mar 25, 2015

I initially went to work as an MT in-house for a practice in 1990.  They outsourced to a company that I went to work for in 2000.  The medical practice was bought by a hospital, so switched their work to another facility.  I continued to work at home for CyMed.  They were sold to SPi, who eventually closed shop.  I left in 2009 to work for Meridian Health Solutions.  In 2013, Meridian sold out to MM, and here I sit at MM, who states they ONLY verify employment, and ...

So I'm applying for a substitute position with my local school system and they want two professional references.  I don't want to ask the current MTSO I work for, nor the physicians in my private accounts.  I've worked for this MTSO for 5 years, a pretty significant length of time considering.  So I'm looking at my resume over the last 10 years and there are five companies closed/bought out. I have been in contact with a company I worked for from 1997 to 2003 ...
