Reviews from our clients

The medical interpretor training was very informative and provided excellent material on how to become a true professional. It was a great experience to be part of the team!

I have to say, this is a very professional place to work with, I am very pleased with how smooth everything is. Very professional. I have other agencies that breach the contract agreement by not posting the assignments for everyone, first come first served, but favoritism is practiced instead. I didn't sensed that with Mataphrasis.Thank you
