[QUOTE="slsh, post: 371230, member: 8"] Personally, I wouldn't put it in any kind of quotation, because no one is being quoted. I only use quotation marks (") when the dr. actually says "the radiologist did not use the term quote herniated disk unquote". If the doctor is just stating that "the radiologist did not use the term herniated disk", I don't think I would quote that at all. The pt states her back is killing her. The pt states, "My back is killing me." - even if doctor didn't say "quote", I would quote this. I don't believe I've ever used the single quotation - but what Step says makes sense. by the way, I realize we're using different spellings of disk/disc. My co.'s edict is that disc is only for eyes (because there's an I and a C in it, as in "I see") and everything else is a disk. So much for consistency in the MT world, LOL. [/QUOTE]
