I've found it a wonderful course for all individuals with or without a medical background and I appreciate the coursera community and the University of Pittsburg for establishing such a course.

As a beginner in Medical Terminology, this course was very useful in general comprehension of the clinical setting, and I already use my knowledge in my medical translation work. Thank you so much!
