This post was written by a friend of mine who is a Doctor, for that reason here is some medical vocabulary. I hope you like it.
ER: Emergency room, the department of a hospital responsible for the provision of medical and surgical care to patients arriving at the hospital in need of immediate care.
Example: If you have a car accident, the ambulance will get you to ER.
Physician: A physician is a person trained in the art of healing. A physician is also referred as a doctor of medicine.
The term “physician” is used somewhat differently in differently English speaking countries. For example, in the UK a physician is a specialist in internal or general medicine while in the USA it is a more general term for a doctor of medicine.
Example: This is Jason, and he is a very good physician.
Surgeon: A physician who treads disease, injury, or deformity by operative or manual methods. A medical doctor specialized in the removal of organs, masses and tumors and in doing other procedures using a knife (scalpel).
Example: My daughter is an excellent doctor, and soon she will became a great surgeon.
Platelets: Platelets are the smallest cell-like structures in the blond and are important for blood clotting

Platelets: Platelets are the smallest cell-like structures in the blond and are important for blood clotting
Example: People with high platelets are considered as potential blood donors.
Blood: The familiar red fluid in the body that contains white and red blood cells, platelets, proteins, and other elements.
Example: When I saw him, he had a lot of blood on his head.
Blood bank: A place where blood is collected from donors, typed, separated into components, stored, and prepared for a transfusion to recipients. A blood bank may be a separate free standing facility or part of a larger laboratory in a hospital.
Example: Have you try calling a blood bank?
Blood group: An inherited feature on the surface of the red blood cells. A series of related blood types constitute a blood group system such as the Rh or the ABO system; the most common type is O+.
Example: You will need you blood group, if you want to get you driver license.
Tears: are the liquid products of a process of lacrimation to clean and lubricate the eyes. The word lacrimation (also spelled lachrymation), may also be used in a medical or literary sense to refer to crying.
Example: when I lost my cat the tears came out of my eyes.
AIDS: Disease due to infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). AIDS is an acronym for Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome.
Example: AIDS is a virus that has claimed many lives because of their high infection.
Injure: Harm or hurt. The term "injury" may be applied in medicine to damage inflicted. The term "injury" may be synonymous (depending on the context) with a wound or with trauma.
