Karen Childress - Writer, Healthcare Consultant, Coach


Writing Services

Feature articles for healthcare publications: With more than twenty years of experience in healthcare, I come to the table with a broad base of knowledge and access to experts on both the clinical and business sides of medicine. Thorough research and in-depth interviews result in compelling articles for all audiences - physicians, practice managers, healthcare leaders, and consumers. I write about health, wellness, challenges of working within our current healthcare system, patient relations, medical practice management, hospital/physician relations, and  work/life balance for healthcare professionals.

Website content: It is daunting to decide what to include on a website, organize the pages and navigation, and create content that will offer visitors a positive experience. Don't panic. I can help. Whether you're launching your first website or updating one you've had for years, I will work with you and your designer to make the process practically painless. 

Newsletters: They're the perfect way to stay connected with patients and clients, but newsletters can be time-consuming to publish. I write the content and do the layout so you can stay focused on what you do best.

Marketing materials: Does your practice brochure need to be updated to reflect a change in your services or philosophy? Or is it finally time to create your first brochure? After interviewing you, your staff, and perhaps even a few of your patients so that I fully understand your practice, approach, objectives, and your target market, I write concise and effective copy that you can use in a variety of ways.

Ghost writing: Your ideas, your tone, your byline . . . all without having to write a single word. Essays, articles, book chapters, books, workbooks. I'd be honored to be your ghost.

Editing articles for publication: You've completed your first draft - congratulations! Now kick back and let me polish your manuscript before you submit it. Editing includes checking spelling, grammar, punctuation and sentence structure as well as reviewing the work for organization, consistency and clarity.
