Healthcare copywriting
When it comes to healthcare communications, every word counts. Complex topics need to be clear. Sensitive subjects need to be handled with care. And your audience needs information they can trust.
I help healthcare organisations turn complex information into engaging, accessible content that connects with both clinical and patient audiences.
Healthcare copy that informs and engages
If you work in healthcare communications, you’ll know how hard it can be to strike the right note. Marketing content often falls into one of two traps: either overloading readers with technical information or oversimplifying the message and compromising accuracy.
As an experienced healthcare copywriter, I turn complex medical information into clear, engaging content without sacrificing accuracy. From dementia care and diabetes to mental health and beyond, I create well-researched, compliant content that informs, engages and builds trust.
Sensitively written and empathetic words
As a specialist healthcare copywriter, I have particular expertise in writing patient-facing content on sensitive topics, such as cancer and bereavement.
I write with empathy, paying careful attention to tone and language, so that the words remain clear while also feeling empathetic and supportive. My job is to help patients feel informed and empowered, not overwhelmed.
Hire an experienced healthcare copywriter
Over the past 10 years, I’ve worked with many different healthcare organisations, including Health Education England, medical diagnostics companies, clinical trials teams, and the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR).
I’ve written content for doctors, consultants, allied health professionals, and patients alike. Alongside my work as a healthcare copywriter, I’m also involved in healthcare research as a public contributor, and I’ve written communications for numerous NHS, NIHR, and NICE studies.
So, I understand the healthcare landscape and the challenges within the industry, from clinical research through to patient care and pharmaceuticals.

Quality Excellence supports healthcare organisations with ISO certification and CQC compliance. I was brought in to create website content for this brand-new business, with a focus on making what can be quite technical services feel clearer and less overwhelming.

Healthcare copywriting for Salisbury Hospice Charity
Drawing on my background as a healthcare copywriter, I created all the website content for Salisbury Hospice Charity, including a patient hub packed with information on palliative care, therapies and hospice-at-home services. The content was written with empathy and reassurance to clearly explain how the hospice can help patients and their families at a difficult time in their lives.

eIntegrity (Health Education England)
For eight years, I supported eIntegrity and Health Education England’s international growth, helping expand the reach of NHS e-learning programmes from just a handful of countries to 144 worldwide.
To support that growth, I developed website content, delivered targeted email campaigns, and created a steady stream of feature articles and blogs that engaged audiences and drove awareness in international markets.
These articles were featured by the NHS, the Royal College of Anaesthetists and numerous professional bodies overseas, boosting eIntegrity’s profile far beyond the UK.
