Hey Everyone!
I need some of your fantastic (and it is) help with some translations.
I've started Russian last year and find myself stumbling over some words still. I have one sound clip that I am trying to understand, but could really use your expertise.

Sound Clip:
- What I hear in this is "medicine" and "doctor" but I can't make out what else is said.

Any help would be SUPER SUPER Appreciated!! ♥!!

Thanks for taking the time to read this!

Но медицина, доктор, может ошибаться.

Doctor, but medicine can mistake.

But, Doctor, medical science could be wrong.

My Russian is really better then English. ;)

I'm not shure that here we should use "could" - we don't know the contest.

I guess, it's subjunctive mood, expressing the possibility, hence the past tense of the verb "can", which is "could". I think if you're interested in English, you should be asking in a different community than this one :)

I'm not sure either, that "could" could be also wrong. :)
By N-sane-peace got the idea.
