Welcome to my Web site 

I'm an award-winning freelance medical and health writer and editor. I've won more than a dozen writing and journalism awards for my work.

As a writer and editor, I'm passionate about good health and wellness, conscientious medicine, and the art of the English language. 

 I've written for dozens of consumer health magazines, trade medical magazines, Web sites for health clinicians and medical journals over the last 25 years.

I've also helped write several consumer health books and have co-authored a recently published book on cancer prevention.
