In today’s lesson, we will learn Spanish to perform a pelvic exam. This lesson is part of our updated series on Spanish for Gynecology. Originally published several years ago, I have refreshed each lesson in this series with the help of my Spanish teachers from Mexico and Costa Rica. You will hear the lovely voice of Daniela Galvis from Venezuela, who recorded most of the Spanish in these lessons. Daniela plays the role of the doctor in today’s dialogue. I will be dropping a new, updated lesson every day this week in the member podcast feed. If you’re not a member, enjoy this sneak peek into our Spanish for Gynecology series.
