“Nancy Faass of The Writers’ Group is one of the leading writers for the Townsend Letter. Her insightful interviews of clinicians examine the philosophy and principals underlying the practice of functional and integrative medicine. I compare her writing with the essays offered in The Atlantic Magazine.”
– Jonathan Collin, MD, Publisher of the Townsend Letter
Writers’ Group services that support article development include interviews, writing, substantive editing, copy editing, collaboration with multilingual authors, literature reviews, secondary research and analysis, development of graphics and tables, and information design.
