Abstract: In order to bridge the gap between current training and the real needs of future medical specialists likely to communicate in an international context, the formation of speaking skills in Medical English (ME) should be approached from a complex bio-medical (BM), academic (A), and humanistic (H) perspective. To validate this hypothesis, the current study capitalises on the expertise and questionnaire-based feedback of a group of Romanian and international ME teachers (N=35) with a desire to find common ground for the consolidation of speaking as pivotal for the medical field and bring it closer to real-life international situations of future physicians and the practice of humanism, albeit this may currently mean different things in different national/local contexts.
