Generate health with an experienced medical writer

Human-centred health content

Medical communications with care and compassion

The healthcare system in Australia is complex. It’s hard to navigate, even for experts.

Helping people through their healthcare journey requires high quality health and medical communications. At every point in healthcare: from bench to bedside.

High-quality content is accurate, compliant with industry rules and written at the right level and tone for the intended audience.

It takes skill, experience and empathy to create meaningful and usable health and medical content.

I’m Sally Bathgate, an experienced freelance health and medical writer with 10+ years of writing user-friendly patient information as well as a background in therapeutic goods regulation and compliance. Let’s work together to create patient-centred health and medical communications.

Who I’ve worked with

Kind words from past clients

  • We had the pleasure of working with Sally Bathgate for our copywriting needs, including reviewing our app content and writing new, medically checked articles. From our very first meeting, Sally's communication was both friendly and professional. She exceeded our high expectations with her meticulous attention to detail and commitment to ensuring all content was thoroughly fact-checked. Thanks to her efforts, we can confidently provide trusted information to help more people globally, which is our top priority. We will undoubtedly be hiring Sally again for her services and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of a true copywriting specialist.

Not only was Sally an absolute pleasure to work with, but the level of professionalism in her writing & the high quality and quick turnaround time of her outputs thrilled both us and the client. We’re very excited to engage Sally again for further work in the future, as she is an extremely talented writer with a great depth of understanding in the medical writing field!”

She is able to translate complex medical content for the general public, and her work continuously exceeded my expectations. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sally for your next medical writing project.

    Michelle Guillemard, Health Writer Hub Founder

  • I have been working with Sally to create web content for my pet health business. The work is outside her real specialty but she has risen to the challenge! I chose to work with Sally because I know she's smart, thorough and honest. Sally has excellent personal communication skills and is able to produce very readable content on our (sometimes esoteric) health content. Thanks for all the help Sally, I really appreciate it.
