The gastro docs that I type for hired a new doctor about two months ago. He has an extremely heavy accent. Though I am getting used to him, I still get stuck at times.
I'm typing a gastroscopy report and I'm at a loss for two words. Any help would really be appreciated.

I've been typing for two gastro docs for 13 years. They recently hired another physician with a very heavy accent and I'm having trouble with his dictation. His dictation is completely different than the other two physicians who stick to one basic format.

Hello! Having some hyphen trouble.
Here is the sentence: ... and the pedicle of the ovary and tube were cross clamped with right-angles.
Does right angles need a hyphen. I know if it is "a right-angle clamp," then it needs a hyphen, but what about if it comes later like the sentence before.
Is it "clamped with right angles" or "clamped with right-angles?"
Is this capitalized? I did not think so!
Also, is it supposed to have an "s" on i ...
