Uma dúvida que tenho faz tempo... este médico especialista que faz apenas exames... ele usa os aparelhos mais modernos... ele "DOES" ou ele "MAKES"? Aparelhos modernos... ai, como seria aparelhos? Machines?
Cybeles Lehner
Brazil
This doctor only examines patients with neurological problems
Explanation:
Eu reduziria "faz exames" para apenas "examines"; quanto aos aparelhos modernos eu diria "modern equipment" ou "latest equipment"; quanto às "sequelas" eu sugeria simplesmente "problems".
Boa Sorte!

examines


Explanation:
Não é necessário dizer o fazer..embora em inglês se diz:

perform or do an exam..aqui, o más formal é: only examines...então o português "fazer um exame'' no registro formal seria: only examines...
