Raissa P.

I am a licensed pediatrician and will be pursuing fellowship training. For the meantime, I am holding clinic for a few hours only every week so I have some extra time at hand to do freelance work mainly writing health promotion/instruction materials or medical-related articles, reviewing and proofreading research/articles, and summarizing medical journals for research or otherwise.
