CreateWrite’s founder, Lana Christian, has had four careers in health care:

• First, as a clinical laboratory scientist in tertiary and academic hospitals
• Then five years in diagnostic sales
• Twelve years as a communications specialist and marketing liaison in a statewide healthcare system
• And, since 2005, as a full-time medical writer, serving clients on four continents.

Her background equips her to write for virtually any therapeutic niche. She is adept at deep dives into scientific and translational research. Her strong instructional design background lends itself to any writing project with educational or PR components. She is equally comfortable explaining complex chemistry principles as she is designing an enterprise-wide health career advancement program.

Most importantly, Lana is an expert at finding, reading, and assimilating large amounts of information in a short period of time—then conveying it at the right comfort level for the target audience—without “dumbing down” the science. Target audiences for her projects span the gamut from physicians, pharmaceutical representatives, insurers, and regulators to patients and the general public.

Lana deeply enjoys every aspect of medical writing and is also passionate about healthcare advocacy and healthcare literacy.
