Voice over work within the medical field is an important genre in the voice recording business. Medical Narration is complex and difficult and should be handled with as much skill and care as possible. Voice artists hired to record for the medical field, not only need to know how to pronounce certain terminology, but they also need to know how to deliver a script story in a way that helps the audience understand what is happening or being taught.

Medical narration covers several areas of medicine. Providing education to students studying biological processes, educating doctors on new and current procedures or practices, as well as being a key instructional tool for patients learning to use certain medical devices or tools. All of these areas are improved with help of competent voice over artists with a passion for education and some knowledge in the medical field.

Medical narration is also paramount for translational purposes. Hospitals treat a diverse amount of people and therefore need to be able to communicate directions or information in a variety of languages. By incorporating translations into medical narration, it ensures that patients, students, and doctors alike are receiving the best instructions or education possible.

Voice over work in medicine does not seem to go hand-in-hand, but this collaboration can be necessary and vital in the medical field and its patients. Medical narration provides a way to implement education, instructions, and information to a variety of people trying to provide care and help to others. It is a business that is crucial to hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, and students. A job of such complex importance should be handled by voice over artists who are skilled and gifted speakers as well as knowledgeable in the field they are recording for.
