Winning patients — and trust

I help my clients — hospitals, health care organizations, academic health centers, continuing medical education providers and others — communicate simply and compellingly about the great work they do. That content, about the often scary and confusing world of science and medicine, wins them patients, customers, and trust.

It’s extraordinarily rewarding work.

I moved into the world of medical and science writing after years as a newspaper and magazine journalist, when I wrote for the Louisville Courier-Journal, the New York Times, Time magazine, Better Homes & Gardens, and other publications. I began to work with scientists and physicians as a senior communications specialist with Oregon Health & Science University, which Nature recently named one of the top 20 research institutions in the world.

Through it all, I’ve learned lessons about communicating. How to write simply and clearly. How to cut through the clutter, and connect. How to move people.

Today, I combine my journalistic and storytelling skills with my fascination with science and medicine to help my clients cut through the clutter — and explain the amazing work they do.

I’d love to do the same for you.
