If you're a hospital, healthcare agency, or healthcare brand in need of content, I have 11 years of medical writing experience to contribute to your project.
From consumer health content to surgeon-targeted medical device content, I've worked on a variety of projects, including:
- interactive content for healthcare brands, including Procter & Gamble, Ensure and Similac.
- more than 50 consumer health articles published on news and hospital Web sites across the country (through EBSCO Publishing), and the former DrugEmporium.com.
- content for medical professionals, including medical device Web content for surgeons, and 80-page internal education manual on a medical device in the R&D stage for Ethicon Endo-Surgery.
I understand the complexity of producing accurate medical content; I taught Scientific & Technical Writing for two years, as assistant professor in University of Cincinnati's Professional Writing program. Following is just a sample of my health writing work in nutrition, women's health, men's health, and alternative health. More clips are available upon request.
