Patient education articles
I am a medical doctor with over 5 years of clinical experience, currently pursuing a Masters in thoracic and cardiovascular surgery.
Passionate about creating an impact beyond the walls of the hospital, I am also a medical writer.
Leveraging my clinical and research experience, I translate complex medical information into clear, accurate, easy-to-understand information for different audiences.
This includes patient education materials and continuing medical education for healthcare providers.
I am also passionate about research and have published research papers.
I provide medical writing services for health websites, medical communication agencies, health startups, CME providers, pharmaceutical companies, health blogs, and hospitals
I am detail-oriented and ensure my writing is evidence-based, up-to-date, clear, and adapted to the intended audience.
