How would ASR handle a sentence like this?

I've been working 2 months. One doctor on my account makes mistakes constantly, says the wrong dates, sends in partial audio files, once sent in a file that was nothing but his side of a cell phone conversation. He complains constantly because he says these are my mistakes. Now, for some reason, my QA person has told him she 100% agrees with him. Also, he thinks I'm the only one working this account, so if someone else makes a mistake I still get yelled at. This is a ...

I have been informed by my employer that our company will be losing 70% of its accounts and thus many transcriptionists and employees will be let go. There is an extremely good chance that I will be among those leaving, as 90% of my accounts are going to be gone. So, I already have a job interview set up with a local physician in a private office, but since my employer has not let me know whether or not I will be laid off, should I tell my employer that I'm looking for another j ...

Okay, so I have a client who is driving me nuts. I wonder what the general consensus is about how to handle a really pesky issue I'm having with him. This particular doctor is an older gentleman who wants to do things to look like he's keeping up with the times but doesn't want to change how he does things. He's also cheap as sin and thinks that because he's a doctor and I'm an MT he's above me in life. Not kidding. Anyway, the issue I& ...

So I just got a temp job in a fancy upscale surgical hospital. First in-house job in 8 years, and I really need to convert this job into a permanent deal, but my first attempts on the phone last week I sort of bombed. Is anybody able to offer some pointers on phone tact? I know I will make mistakes, it would be great if I could recover from them gracefully. >_<* If someone was willing to mentor me and get me through this next week I would send you a box of cookies or brownies or wha ...

doc refers to mom or mother/dad/grandma, etc. I was taught that if it is "the mom" you would not capitalize but if you can substitute a name, then it would be capitalized. The mom denies vomiting, but Mom states the baby..... (would that be correct as far as capitalization goes?) ...

I have a psych doc who always says "the patient was less complaintive today." I've changed it o "the patient complained less today." But the doc sends the report back for correction and wants the word "complaintive" which is NOT a word! I've been giving it to him, but man it drives me crazy. I have an ortho doc who ALWAYS says "all were in agreeance" and I change it to agreement and so far so good, but he is still dictating agreeance. ...

I'm just curious. I'm currently an IC, but I'm finding it very difficult to move the required amount of money out of each paycheck to set aside for estimated taxes. If it's there, I'm usually using it to pay bills and not moving it into the separate account I set up for that specific purpose. Sigh. I was thinking I should get an employee position so the taxes are already taken out, and the responsibility is taken out of my hands because I obviously can ...

He was placed on levodopa therapy. With this, both him and his wife noticed his gait improved as well as the tremor. He has actually run out of this over the last 4 or 5 days and it may be a little bit of worsening. That is typed as dictated, I am stumped as to cleaning it up. Also.. 'both him and his wife' does not sound right to me? or is it right. ...

He had multiple facial fractures including bilateral number three fracture, ligament injury in C7-T1, left hand fracture, T9 compression fractures, multiple rib fractures, right clavicular fracture, and left second metacarpal fracture.

I'm transcribing a dictation by an Asian doctor and I'm unsure what to do with this sentence. I'm pretty sure it is exactly what he is saying. "...drainage from her right ear 2-3 days ago. This happened after her swimming 2-3 days or had all this drainage." The part I'm unsure about is after the first period. Thanks in advance for any ideas!! ...

Hello to all MT posters- - Am wondering about tips about sentence breaks and comma use.

HI, I need to know if there are supposed to be 2 spaces between sentences. I was always taught in word there was one. I need to know because I edit. ...

I hope I posted this in the right place. If not, my sincerest apologies. I'm curious - how many of you put a comma after the phrase "At this time", i.e. At this time, the patient was discharged to home, as opposed to At this time the patient was discharged to home. I used to know all of this stuff but it's been 34 years since I graduated high school. LOL. I had some great English teachers but the memory fades with age...... :-) Thanks in advance! Have a ...
