It is all about understanding your medical or dental product

MEDCONTACT® specializes in complex translations of documents about medical and dental devices:

• Brochures and leaflets
• Internet pages
• Product information
• Clinical studies
• Work instructions
• Clinical investigations
• Presentation and training documents
• Articles

The translation of documents of complex medical devices requires technical understanding of the product and understanding of the medical periphery. Research into the correct terminology is also necessary, and technical questions that need to be clarified for better understanding may have to be discussed with the manufacturing company. Incorrect or poor translations can lead to a significant loss of image or even competence for the company and can cause considerable costs.

MEDCONTACT®/Angelika Pfirrman is familiar with medical devices and knows what is needed to market and communicate a medical product appropriately. Angelika is familiar with all of the corporate processes relating to the marketing of medical devices. Thus, she not only has the perspective of a translator, but also that of the manufacturer who wants to launch a product. She takes great care in providing accurate translations and treats your documents confidentially and with great responsibility.

For translations into English, Spanish or French, Medcontact® cooperates with a small select team of quality–oriented and professionally trained native-speaker technical translators, some of whom also have further scientific qualifications. Angelika briefs the translators on the products and supports and supervises the translation process. Furthermore, every translation is subject to extensive editing, proofreading and discussion in keeping with the principle of dual control. Your sales partners can also be integrated into the translation process.

 Adaptations – not just a translation

Marketing documents which position the company and the product may require some adaptation in relation to competing products and different market conditions. Based on her extensive expertise, Medcontact/Angelika Pfirrmann is able to adapt and localize foreign marketing documents to the market situation in Germany. This means your document will not be a “blind” translation: it will be adapted to the specific market requirements in Germany.
