neutral  Daniele Bertinato: A colega deve estar se confundindo com o Hospital das Clínicas de São PAulo. Do jeito que foi colocado Hospital de clínicas, pode ser traduzido General Hospital

agree  Donna Sandin: It's still better not to translate the name of the hospital - put it in italics and if you need to, use square brackets to enclose your translation as [General Hospital]. Usually we're told not to translate names of companies, or schools, or banks, etc.

  -> Thanks.
neutral  Thais Maria Lips: I don't see it as the name of the hospital, it doesn't say Das Clinicas, but De Clinicas, it refers to the General Hospital of a University.
