Medical Translation Services

All languages

Professional medical translation services require exceptional accuracy, specialist terminology and absolute confidentiality. Kitz Global has provided professional translations since 2005 and translates medical and healthcare documents into and from virtually all languages.

From a single medical report for a patient seeking treatment abroad to extensive clinical, pharmaceutical or medical-technology documentation, we provide translations tailored to the subject matter and intended use.

Our medical translation services cover documents for:

  • Patients and private individuals
  • Doctors and medical practices
  • Hospitals and clinics
  • Pharmaceutical companies
  • Medical device manufacturers
  • Healthcare organisations
  • Insurance companies
  • Research institutions
  • Legal and administrative procedures

Where a medical document needs to be submitted officially, we can also provide a certified medical translation by an appropriately qualified sworn or authorised translator.

How to order a medical translation

Medical documents can normally be submitted entirely online.

  1. Upload or send us your documents in PDF, Word, scan or another suitable format.
  2. We review the language combination, subject matter, volume and intended use.
  3. Receive your price and expected delivery time.
  4. Your documents are translated by an appropriately qualified professional translator with experience in medical or healthcare terminology.
  5. Quality assurance and delivery – your completed translation is delivered in the agreed format. Certified paper versions can also be provided where required.

For larger medical, pharmaceutical or technical projects, we establish an appropriate project workflow and terminology management process.

  • Insurance documentation
  • Medical assessments
  • Treatment confirmations
  • Cost-related documentation
  • Healthcare correspondence

Medical report translation services

A medical report translation must communicate medical information accurately and clearly.

Reports can contain highly specialised terminology, abbreviations, measurements, medication names and references to previous diagnoses or treatments.

We translate medical reports for purposes such as:

  • Treatment abroad
  • Second medical opinions
  • International specialists
  • Continuing treatment after relocation
  • Insurance procedures
  • Legal matters
  • Administrative procedures
  • Personal medical records

Tell us why the translation is required so that the appropriate workflow can be selected.

Translation of medical diagnoses

Medical diagnoses can be extremely concise while carrying significant meaning.

The translator must understand the medical terminology and context rather than simply translate individual words.

We translate diagnoses contained in:

  • Medical reports
  • Specialist reports
  • Hospital records
  • Discharge letters
  • Medical certificates
  • Diagnostic findings

Where abbreviations occur, they are handled according to the available context and source document.

Medical records translation

Patients increasingly receive treatment in more than one country.

This can create a need to translate an entire medical record rather than a single report.

A medical file may contain:

  • Previous diagnoses
  • Treatment histories
  • Medication information
  • Laboratory results
  • Surgical records
  • Imaging reports
  • Specialist findings
  • Discharge summaries
  • Therapy records

For larger patient files, send us all relevant documents so that we can assess the volume and establish a consistent translation workflow.

Medical translation for treatment abroad

Travelling to another country for medical treatment may require existing medical information to be available in the language of the treating doctor or hospital.

Relevant documents can include:

  • Diagnosis
  • Medical history
  • Current treatment
  • Medication
  • Laboratory results
  • Imaging reports
  • Surgical reports
  • Previous hospital records

Professional translation helps make the information accessible to the healthcare professionals involved.

Always ask the receiving hospital or doctor which documents they require and in which language.

Medical translation for a second opinion

Patients seeking a second opinion from a specialist abroad may need their existing records translated.

Depending on the medical question, the specialist may request:

  • Medical reports
  • Pathology findings
  • Laboratory results
  • Imaging reports
  • Surgical reports
  • Previous diagnoses
  • Treatment summaries

Before translating an extensive medical file, it can be useful to ask the specialist which documents are actually relevant.

This can reduce unnecessary translation costs and focus the project on the information required.

Translation of hospital discharge summaries

Hospital discharge summaries frequently contain a condensed overview of:

  • Diagnosis
  • Treatment
  • Surgery
  • Medication
  • Test results
  • Recommendations
  • Follow-up treatment

Because these documents can be important for continuing treatment in another country, accurate terminology and clear translation are essential.

Kitz Global provides professional translations of discharge summaries into and from virtually all languages.

Laboratory report translation

Laboratory reports can contain a combination of terminology, abbreviations, values, reference ranges and technical information.

We translate:

  • Blood test reports
  • Laboratory findings
  • Microbiology reports
  • Pathology reports
  • Histology reports
  • Other diagnostic laboratory documentation

Numerical values and units require particular care during translation and quality assurance.

Radiology and diagnostic report translation

We also provide translations of written diagnostic reports such as:

  • MRI reports
  • CT reports
  • X-ray reports
  • Ultrasound reports
  • Radiology findings

These translations are frequently required when diagnostic examinations were carried out in one country but further treatment takes place in another.

Translation of medical certificates

Medical certificates may be required for official, professional, insurance or administrative purposes.

Depending on the intended use, the receiving institution may require either:

  • A professional medical translation, or
  • A formally certified translation

Tell us where the document will be submitted so that we can determine which type of translation is appropriate.

Certified medical translation services

Some medical documents require certified translation, particularly when they are being submitted as formal evidence rather than solely used for medical information.

Examples can include:

  • Medical certificates
  • Medical assessments
  • Disability-related documentation
  • Insurance documents
  • Medical evidence for legal proceedings
  • Certificates for authorities
  • Medical documents connected with immigration or administrative procedures

In these cases, Kitz Global can arrange translation by an appropriately qualified sworn or authorised translator.

Certification requirements depend on the receiving country and institution.

Medical translations for insurance companies

Insurance procedures can involve medical documentation from different countries.

Documents may include:

  • Medical reports
  • Diagnoses
  • Treatment records
  • Hospital reports
  • Medical certificates
  • Cost documentation
  • Medical assessments

The insurer determines which documents need translation and whether formal certification is required.

Medical translations for legal proceedings

Medical documentation can also form part of legal proceedings.

Examples include:

  • Medical reports
  • Expert reports
  • Injury documentation
  • Treatment records
  • Medical certificates
  • Hospital records
  • Medical assessments

For court or legal use, it is important to establish whether the translation must be formally certified.

Tell us which court, law firm, authority or other institution will receive the document.

Pharmaceutical translation services

Pharmaceutical translation requires specialised terminology and consistent handling of product and medical information.

Kitz Global translates pharmaceutical content such as:

  • Product information
  • Patient information
  • Safety documentation
  • Training materials
  • Research-related documentation
  • Internal documentation
  • Marketing materials
  • Website content

For larger projects, client-specific terminology and reference materials can be incorporated into the translation workflow.

Medical device translation services

Manufacturers of medical devices operate in highly international markets and often require multilingual documentation.

We translate content including:

  • Instructions for use
  • User manuals
  • Product descriptions
  • Technical specifications
  • Safety information
  • Training documents
  • Marketing materials
  • Websites

Medical device translation can combine medical, technical and regulatory terminology, making specialist translator selection particularly important.

Clinical translation services

Clinical and research-related documentation can contain highly specialised medical and scientific terminology.

Depending on the project, we translate:

  • Clinical documentation
  • Research materials
  • Study-related documents
  • Patient-facing information
  • Medical questionnaires
  • Training materials
  • Supporting documentation

For larger or recurring projects, terminology can be managed centrally to ensure consistency.

Medical website translation

Healthcare companies, clinics, doctors, medical device manufacturers and other organisations may also require their websites to be translated.

Medical website translation combines:

  • Medical terminology
  • Patient-friendly language
  • Marketing communication
  • Localization
  • Website-specific content

Where required, website translation can also be combined with multilingual SEO optimization.

Medical translations for hospitals and clinics

Hospitals and clinics may require translations for both patients and internal or external communication.

These can include:

  • Patient information
  • Medical reports
  • Consent-related information
  • Treatment information
  • Discharge documentation
  • Administrative documents
  • Websites
  • Information materials

For recurring translation requirements, a dedicated workflow can be established.

Medical translations for doctors and medical practices

Doctors and medical practices may need translations when treating international patients or communicating with foreign healthcare providers.

We translate:

  • Medical reports
  • Referral letters
  • Specialist findings
  • Patient information
  • Certificates
  • Correspondence
  • Website content

Small individual documents as well as recurring translation requirements can be handled.

Medical translations for pharmaceutical and healthcare companies

Companies often require a broader multilingual translation solution.

Kitz Global can coordinate translations across areas such as:

  • Medical content
  • Technical documentation
  • Corporate communication
  • Training
  • Marketing
  • Websites
  • Internal documentation

A dedicated project manager can coordinate multiple documents and languages within one project.

Why specialist medical translators matter

Medical language is highly specialised.

A translator must understand not only the words but also the context in which terminology is being used.

Depending on the project, medical translations can involve terminology from areas such as:

  • General medicine
  • Cardiology
  • Oncology
  • Orthopaedics
  • Neurology
  • Gynaecology
  • Dermatology
  • Radiology
  • Surgery
  • Pathology
  • Psychiatry
  • Dentistry
  • Pharmacology
  • Medical technology

Translators are selected according to the requirements and specialist subject of the project.

Professional native-language medical translators

Kitz Global works with qualified professional translators selected according to their linguistic and specialist expertise.

For medical translations, particular attention is paid to:

  • Medical terminology
  • Source-language comprehension
  • Target-language quality
  • Subject-area experience
  • Accuracy
  • Consistency
  • Appropriate professional style

Translations are produced for the intended target audience, whether that is a doctor, patient, authority, insurance company or professional organisation.

Medical terminology and consistency

Consistency is essential in medical translation.

The same diagnosis, anatomical term, product name or medical concept should not be translated differently throughout a document or series of documents without reason.

For larger and recurring projects, we can work with:

  • Client terminology
  • Glossaries
  • Reference translations
  • Product terminology
  • Style guidelines
  • Previously approved documents

This helps ensure consistency across languages and projects.

Confidential medical translation services

Medical documents contain highly sensitive personal information.

Confidential handling is therefore an essential part of professional medical translation.

Kitz Global treats documents and project information confidentially and uses controlled workflows appropriate to professional translation projects.

For corporate clients with specific confidentiality requirements, project arrangements can be agreed individually.

Human medical translation and quality assurance

Medical translation is a field in which context and terminology are particularly important.

Professional translators assess:

  • Medical meaning
  • Terminology
  • Abbreviations
  • Context
  • Target audience
  • Document purpose

Translation technology can support professional workflows, but medical documents require appropriate human linguistic expertise and quality assurance.

For critical or complex projects, additional review can be arranged according to the project requirements.

Medical translation services for private individuals

You do not need to be a hospital or company to use our medical translation service.

Private clients frequently contact us because they:

  • Have received treatment abroad
  • Are moving to another country
  • Need a second medical opinion
  • Have foreign medical records
  • Need documentation for an insurance company
  • Require a medical certificate for an authority
  • Want to continue treatment in another country

Simply send us the documents and tell us what the translation will be used for.

Medical translation online

There is normally no need to visit our translation agency in person.

You can send or upload your medical documents electronically.

For individual documents:

Upload your document → Get price & delivery time → Order → Translation → Receive your document

For larger projects, we will review the files and provide you with a customised quotation and project schedule.

Which file formats can you translate?

Depending on the project, we can work with common formats such as:

  • PDF
  • Word
  • Excel
  • Scanned documents
  • High-quality photographs
  • XML
  • Other structured electronic files

For scanned medical documents, make sure that all text, values, handwritten notes and stamps are clearly visible.

Do medical translations need to be certified?

Not always.

If a translation is required so that a doctor or specialist can understand your medical history, a professional medical translation may be sufficient.

Certification may be necessary when the document is being submitted formally to:

  • An authority
  • A court
  • An insurance company
  • Another institution requiring certified documentation

The receiving institution determines its requirements.

If you are unsure, ask whether it requires a professional translation or a certified translation before placing your order.
