What medical documents do we translate?
Medical documentation is diverse and highly specialized. Our professional translators are experts in handling a wide range of texts with the necessary care. This includes medical reports, surgical reports, pathological and radiological findings, as well as medical assessments that are critical for legal disputes or insurance claims. In the field of clinical research, we translate study protocols, consent forms, and regulatory documents. For the pharmaceutical industry and medical device manufacturers, we accurately and compliantly translate package inserts (PIL), Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC), and Instructions for Use (IFU) into the target language.

Our quality assurance process according to ISO 17100
Quality is non-negotiable in medical translations. Therefore, we strictly adhere to the international standard ISO 17100, which mandates a standardised and transparent translation process. Each project goes through a multi-step process: Initially, our project management selects a qualified specialist translator whose expertise precisely matches the specific medical field. After the translation, a mandatory review is conducted by a second, independent expert reviser. This dual control principle ensures both terminological accuracy and stylistic appropriateness. Finally, a final quality check is carried out before delivery to you.
The Role of the Medical Translator: More Than Just Language Skills
A medical specialist translator is a linguist with extensive medical knowledge. Our experts not only possess excellent knowledge of the source and target language, but also have a deep understanding of medical terminology, anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology. They are familiar with the specific abbreviations, eponyms, and syntactic structures common in medical texts. This dual profile is essential to convey complex issues not just literally, but to render the content appropriately in context and accurately in the target language. Continuous professional development in their medical specialties is second nature to our translators.
Specialised translations for the pharmaceutical industry and clinical research
In the globalised world of pharmaceuticals and clinical research, precise communication across language barriers is a crucial success factor. mentoc supports companies in complying with regulatory requirements, such as those of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) or the FDA. We translate documentation for clinical trials, manufacturing instructions, marketing authorisation applications, and pharmacovigilance reports. We ensure the consistent use of validated terminology and adherence to country-specific formal requirements to expedite your product approval process and minimise risks.

When do you need a certified medical translation?
A certified translation is always required when a medical document needs to be presented to an authority, court, university, or another official body abroad. The certification confirms the accuracy and completeness of the translation, with the sworn translator affixing their stamp and signature. Typical use cases include the recognition of professional qualifications for doctors or nursing staff, submission of certificates to immigration authorities, claims with foreign insurers, or the use of medical reports in legal proceedings.
Have a Doctor's Letter Translated: A Guide for Patients
If you need a medical report for treatment abroad, a second opinion, or an insurance claim, a professional translation is essential. The process with mentoc is simple and transparent. Send us a clear copy or a scan of your medical report via our secure request form. Specify the target language and the purpose of the translation, especially if certification is required. You will promptly receive a non-binding quote with a fixed price and an estimate of the processing time. After your confirmation, our team will ensure the precise and confidential translation.
Terminology Management: Consistency in Every Medical Translation
Consistency is a key quality feature, especially in extensive projects such as the documentation of clinical studies or the translation of product catalogues for medical technology. Mentoc relies on systematic terminology management. We create and maintain customer-specific terminology databases and glossaries. This ensures that technical terms, product names, and company-specific formulations are consistently translated across all documents and throughout all projects. The use of modern translation memory systems supports this process, increases efficiency, and helps to reduce costs without compromising quality.
How is the quality of my translation ensured?
In medico-legal reports used in legal proceedings, every nuance matters. An imprecise translation can have far-reaching legal consequences. Our translators for this field have dual qualifications or many years of experience at the intersection of medicine and law. They not only understand the medical facts, but also the legal evidential value and implications of specific wording. We ensure that the translation is not only factually correct but also meets the formal and stylistic requirements of the respective legal system to be fully valid in court.
