Benefits I Aim to Deliver
Reducing writing time:
For any professsional, time is a scarce resource. Therefore, spending large chunks of time writing reports or compiling documents is usually not a welcome activity.
My services are meant to lift the burden of this task from my clients’ shoulders. They provide me with their clinical notes and other relevant documentation. I compile the associated information into a well constructed, accurate and precisely written document.
My clients are thereby free to see more patients or to spend more time practicing what they are best at while I see to their admin workload.
Protecting reputation, credibility:
Within the medico-legal arena particularly, where documents and reports come under careful scrutiny and are required to meet rigorous quality standards, it is imperative that documents be meticulously edited and proofread.
More than that, it is valuable for someone who understands the terminology and legal issues involved to ensure congruency of information, and to identify and correct potential weaknesses.
With a deep background of providing report writing support in many high-profile medico-legal cases, I am confident, that in the background, I play a role in helping my clients meet high standards, protect their professional reputation and uphold their credibility.
