At present there is no medical dictionary available for OpenOffice.org and I know of no commercial dictionary which will work with OOo. Some colleagues and I are in the process of developing one - non-commercial, of course. At this stage it is for Australian English, but a rough conversion to US (I presume) usage is not difficult with a search and replace. I can let you have a copy of our list, it is about 5500 words at this stage. Have a look at http://www.justlocal.com.au/clients/oooau/ In particular http://www.justlocal.com.au/clients/oooau/#Convert_custom_dictionary_to_a_list_of_words_ may be helpful. I hope this helps a bit. We are looking for volunteers to help us collect words, if you could assist there, it would be great.
