    I have been working in the medical field for more than 30 years. As a student, intern, community service doctor, a general practitioner, and for the last 21 years as a chemical pathologist, working closely with both medical technologists in clinical laboratories and clinicians, especially in the fields of biochemistry for general physical medicine, adult and paediatric endocrinology, nephrology and oncology. In the laboratory my special interest was quality control, and as a clinician I enjoyed endocrinology. By joining upwork, I believe I might be able to use this accumulated knowledge in a completely new way, while at the same time managing to combine it with my love for writing and language. I understand the need for accuracy and urgency in the medical field, and aim to offer results that will satisfy both needs. I believe in good communication as a way to minimise misunderstandings, and believe this will cement a good comprehension of standards and work expectation too.
