Copy-Editing

I proof-read reviews of randomised controlled trials and copy-edit educational medical texts for a global network of researchers, professionals, patients, carers, and people interested in health from over 120 countries. They work together to produce evidence-based health information that is free from commercial sponsorship and other conflicts of interest. Their vision is a world of improved health where decisions about health and health care are based on research evidence and they strive to make this evidence accessible to everyone, everywhere in the world through systematic reviews published in their online library.

Clinical Coding

What is a clinical coder?

A clinical coder is a health information management professional who assigns codes to narrative descriptions of patients’ diseases, operations and other health procedures in accordance with the classification system ICD-10, recognised by the World Health Organisation (WHO), to allow for easy storage, retrieval and analysis of health data.

As a clinical coder I have translated into code the treatment of solid tumours and haematological disorders for a chemotherapy day clinic. I also captured clinical data through my coding in areas of general, cardiac, ENT, maxillofacial, plastic and orthopaedic surgery, IVF, gastroenterology, urology, obstetrics and neurosurgery at a hospital.
Work on medical and operation reports has informed my translation practice.

Testimonials

Angela Lai did an excellent job in the translation of my German driving licence into English. The same day I emailed her my initial request she sent me an electronic copy of the translation and the original translation arrived two days later via post. The communication via email was extraordinarily quick and the pricing of her translation very affordable.
I can highly recommend her for translation services and I’m very pleased with her work.

Der Übersetzungsservice von Frau Lai für meine Arbeitszeugnisse hat mir äußert gut gefallen. Gefunden habe ich Sie über die NAATI Homepage, in Kontakt getreten bin ich mit Ihr über das Kontaktformular auf Ihrer Homepage. Nicht einmal eine Stunde später hatte ich einen Kostenvoranschlag als Mail. Auch die weitere Abwicklung ging schnell, unkompliziert und ohne Missverständnisse. Die zu übersetzenden Dokumente habe ich pünktlich und in sehr guter Qualität erhalten. Ich kann Frau Lai nur weiterempfehlen.

Katharina Putzig

Die Zusammenarbeit zwischen Angela und mir war sehr angenehm. Das Angebot für meine zu übersetzenden Dokumente kam innerhalb eines halben Tages, und auch die Übersetzung wurde schnell fertig gestellt und per Postweg innerhalb von einem Tag zugestellt.
Dankeschön für die schnelle unkomplizierte und professionelle Übersetzung meiner Dokumente!

I chose Angela to translate my documents, because her rates were considerably lower than her competitors’. Whenever I send her an email or a request for another translation, she replies and finishes the work astonishingly quickly! She also gives me the opportunity to double check her work, or even discuss finer meanings of words. My latest translation contained terms of a specific field, that she must have researched properly, giving me a precise and easy-to-read document at the end.
My original motive may have been pricing, but I am really glad, I found such a reliable, quick and thorough translator!

In August 2014 I migrated from Germany to Australia to live here together with my Australian husband and stepson. Everyone who has migrated to another country knows how much work this step involves, including applications for visa, work, insurances, documents etc. Since some of my documents were only in German, I needed some English translations from a NAATI accredited translator such as Angela Lai. She did the translation of my driver’s license and later on also the translation of my doctoral certificate from German into English. I was very happy with her work and service. Angela is a professional translator who is reliable and a very friendly person. I also appreciated that she did the translations for me within a day. For each future translation required I would contact her again.

I have used Angela Lai’s translating services for a client who required their documents to be translated from German to English.

Angela worked in a professional and timely manner. The documents we required for translation were done so within one day and we were given the opportunity to comment before finalisation was made. Angela’s fees are also extremely reasonable and affordable.

I would have no hesitation in using her translation services again and will surely do so if required. I will recommend her highly for anyone who is looking for German translating services.
