    English to Gaelic Please

    Is there anyone out there who can help with a very little translation from English in to Gaelic. I am designing a personal badge for a doctor. I would like to have his motto in Irish Gaelic but i don't think he would care as long as it is Gaelic. I have two mottoes in mind. The first is "I Heal" and the second is "I am a Doctor" or "Doctor". Thanks

    Here's a place that can be of additional help.

    http://www.irishgaelictranslator.com/

    Go to the Dictionary off site, verb=Heal and expect a ton of possibilities.

    Hang on over the weekend. It's a Canadian long weekend and our Gaelic expert might not be back before Tuesday.
    I'd wait for him.

    I Heal = Tá leigheas agam (pronouced TAW LYE-AS AG-UM)
    I am a Doctor = Is dochtúir mé (pronounced IS DOKH-TOOR MAY)
    Doctor = Dochtúir (pronounced DOKH-TOOR)

    With many thanks to Solhairt, I was able to complete the doctor's badge and complete the set. They are the result of a "double dare" from a friend. He knew I had been creating art for clan badge pins. Knowing my love of Star Trek, he first challenged me to create a personal badge for Spock and it sort of grew from there. Below is the result.
