ISMedica provides a range of medical writing services throughout the healthcare and scientific industries. The world's leading pharma companies are amongst their top clients and they are in demand both nationally and internationally. Their work is pervasive and global reaching. In just about every other industry or profession the brief would be pretty straightforward. Wed draw up a list of clients, offer a selection of successful case-studies or portfolios and generally do our damdest to inform the end-user just how in-demand our client was.
But we couldn't do that. Not this time.
Medical Writing or ghostwriting is a discreet and inconspicuous affair that requires more than a little modesty and diplomancy. You are hired on the understanding that your input will remain invisible. Any success that you enjoy will be unknown outside of the priveleged few. This makes showboating a bit of a challenge.

The simplicity of the build was reflected in the final costs. The uncomplicated design and the disciplined approach to content lowered labour-costs significantly. We advised on copy, optimized the site for Search Engines and offered a low-cost hosting solution.
