Henley Medical Writing

My name is Jenny Charlton & I’m a Freelance Medical Writer…

I have over 15 years of experience in medical communications and publishing, and a passion for developing effective medical education materials. A large part of my love for this job comes from learning about the human body and the fascinating advances in medicine being made, and then communicating these to a wide range of audiences.
