Medical Tests

Hello, class!

Sometimes the doctor must order some tests to diagnose an illness, as part of the regular care of an existing problem, or as part of a regular check-up.

When the doctor wants you to have blood work, an x-ray or other test, she will give you a requisition form. You must take that form to the lab or imaging clinic.

Today you can practice listening and reading about this topic.

Read and listen:
Taking a urine sample
Taking an X-ray
Having a Blood Test in the Lab
Calling About Test Results (normal)
Calling About Test Results (need more testing)

You can continue to work on the spelling words from last week:

Learn to spell the doctor's office vocabulary.
Next, try to unscramble the sentences.
Finally, write your own sentences.

Watch and listen:
In order to encourage all men over 40 to have a prostate exam, Dr. Oz conducted one on television. You can watch the show HERE.

Have fun!
Kelly
