For people with no medical knowledge, of which we are probably the majority, I've found this to be a great, handy little app. In fact, it's probably meant more for people like me than, say, a doctor or other medical professional. I don't know why A) people expect every app in the store to be a complete, professional guide for experts when they don't describe the app as that and B) why professionals or "Experts" have to knock an app for not being what it never claims to be?

This is a great application for people who wants basic info on medical terms and medical words . I've just installed it yesterday and i've learned a lot since. Dream dict. very nice .

I like the medical reference. We need more medical applications and I'm glad someone took the time to make one. In response to the review that said that they don't think this goes into enough detail, this applications is comparable to the medical dictionary in Epocrates and the palm version of Mosby's. None of them go into a tremendous amount of detail; they just give you a quick definition of a term, which is very useful as a student or new practitioner to use as a reminder. That's why it's a called dictionary and not a complete reference book.

There were 2 apps that I had hoped would be available since the app store opened. Epocrytes and a Medical Dictionary. Finally I have them both! I'm not sure that I'll ever use the dream portion, but hey, it's interesting!

This app puts two very useful tools, the medical dictionary and acronym reference, in the palm of your hand. As an LPN attending PA school next spring, I try to learn as much as I can thru my job to prepare myself. This program allows me to look up these acronyms and medical terms quickly and efficiently.

I'm an LPN, getting my RN next year and really wanted a nice med dictionary for my itouch, this was a waste of money. One star for the dream dictionary, its actually kinda interesting. Medical dictionary useless, its extremely basic. Would be useful to someone with no medical knowledge.

I'm in school to be a pharmacy tech and I thought this app would help. It's a good app it's just missing a lot of Sig codes and abbreviations. I hope any updates in the future will add moreStill great for 2 bucks. Good buy!

Okay, I've been studying dream analysis for sometime now and have never read a more biased set of interpretations. Albeit that CG Jung's theory was also created under patriarchal influence but this is at a whole new level (lower). Dreams involving "Negroes" (actual quote from the app not mine) were portrayed as negative, both the interpretation & the proposed dream image. I've had dreams of people from various cultural backgrounds & when I have looked it up in other more reputable dream interpretation dictionaries it describes "dark skinned" persons as symbolizing mystery & wisdom not impending doom as this app suggests. Also, there are some very chovanistic connotations as well. Overall, I was a little offended. Also, as a comment to the linear thinking doctor jokingly comparing astrophysics to astrology...there are several collective research teams involving physicists, archetypal cosmologists, astrologists & psychologists working to fund supportive findings that all these areas are linked. Maybe you should expand your horizons beyond the obvious.

It doesn't have a ton of stuff like Lyme, and many others in there. Do not buy it thinking it is a complete dictionary of any thing!

Im a 4th yr medical student and wanted a general medical dictionary, this one is missing basic terms and words at times Too much to be really good for profesionals IMO

I purchased just for the Dream dictionary. And I love it and use it several times a week. It would be nice to have more words for the Dream dictionay.

It would be nice to have more terms. I like the new interface, except I miss the large buttons that would appear around the keyboard (like the clear text button, that was useful!) Also, please make it so you can search more than one database at a time, for example, both the acronym and medical terms database would be very helpful.

Very much useless and waste of money. Lots of unknown medical terms! Needs improvement and more terms pls!

The medical dictionary and acronym dictionary is useful, although there are some routine acronyms missing... I think it would also be nice if disapproved acronyms were marked as such (ie. "MS - 1. Multiple Sclerosis 2. Morphine Sulfate (disapproved)"

The "about me" part of this app won't even open! I have reported it but have gotten no rresponse. I purchased this so I could record my surgeries, medicationd, etc. For when I go to a new doctor....waste of money!

The dream dictionary is like a fortune cookie and the medical is good for a general description

Don't believe what you read. One day one .99. I guess that applies for whatever day you actually find their app. I bought it jan 15. As for the app good app. Would have given 4 star but for the deception.

I purchased this app. so I may learn medical acronyms better and this sure does help. I also like the fact the their is a button that dictates the word to you. I will use this for reference for my upcoming tests. ohh n for 1.99 well worth it, I would buy this if it was 5 bucks

Second review I am giving, I am still not having any luck with this dictionary... i.e. words I have looked up unsuccessfully: Hydrosalpinx, Panus, or Pannus, Hyperemiea, Hyperemic..... every word I have searched has not been there. No reason to keep this on my phone!

Although, it could use a way to connect to some sort of medical database for additional information and updates.

I'm an LPN, getting my RN next year and really wanted a nice med dictionary for my itouch, this was a waste of money. One star for the dream dictionary, its actually kinda interesting. Medical dictionary useless, its extremely basic. Would be useful to someone with no medical knowledge.

Every since I purchased this App. It has not been working keeps shutting down, I want my .99 back

DO NOT LOADS ..ONLY THE FIRST PAGE WHEN YOU GO THE DICTIONARIES NOTHING LOADS...I WANT MY MONEY BACK
