I am a board-certified family medicine physician bridging my two passions: medicine and writing.
Medical writing for a lay audience is one way I help people achieve their best health. It keeps me up to date and feeds my compulsion to write. I began with one-page educational materials to distill complex medical problems into understandable, clinically relevant facts for my patients.
My audience is expanding. In the spring of 2021, I authored “How to Travel Safely in a Post-Pandemic World, A Physician’s Guide,” for International Living magazine. International Living's November 2021 excerpt was picked up and reviewed by thirdAGE in March 2022.
I am a contributing medical writer at goodrx.com. My articles make information on medical conditions like leg swelling accessible to all.
UNDERTOW, my first novel, is inspired by my background in medicine. I’m in the process of querying literary agents for representation. Check it out…
UNDERTOW
Doubt is the constant companion of any young doctor, particularly one as conscientious as Sarah Mason. The second-year resident takes her skills from an urban American hospital to rural Mexico. Between her rusty Spanish and the new setting, she feels like a student again. But she would rather be cautious and thorough than make a mistake.
Just as Sarah is getting more comfortable with her duties at the clinic, a patient—who is also the wife of a prominent politician—dies. When her supervisor implies that Sarah’s treatment contributed to the unexpected death, she is compelled find the true cause and learn from the case. The investigation plunges her into a world of merciless cartels, corrupt politicians, and ulterior motives.
It’s not like her to fret, but Ruby is worried. What will happen when her unusual middle name is revealed during roll call on the first day of school? Ruby wrestles with this situation in the pages of my debut picture book, JUST RUBY. This lyrical story has a strong, lovable main character and a self-empowering message.
