The explosion of clinical textual data has drawn the attention of researchers. Owing to the abundance of clinical data, it is becoming difficult for healthcare professionals to take real-time measures. The tools and methods are lacking when compared to the amount of clinical data generated every day. This review aims to survey the text processing pipeline with deep learning methods such as CNN, RNN, LSTM, and GRU in the healthcare domain and discuss various applications such as clinical concept detection and extraction, medically aware dialogue systems, sentiment analysis of drug reviews shared online, clinical trial matching, and pharmacovigilance. In addition, we highlighted the major challenges in deploying text processing with deep learning to clinical textual data and identified the scope of research in this domain. Furthermore, we have discussed various resources that can be used in the future to optimize the healthcare domain by amalgamating text processing and deep learning.
