What Clients Say About Laura
“Working with Laura is a masterclass in reliability. She has a unique ability to digest highly clinical information and transform it into clear, accurate content for patients — all while seamlessly integrating data insights. Even with our most complex projects, she manages the process from development to approval with unwavering autonomy, grace, and professional wisdom. Our team achieves more because Laura is on the project.”
“For more than two decades, Laura has been an invaluable thought leadership partner to CMR Institute. Her depth of life sciences expertise and insight is unmatched, and she consistently translates complex clinical information, evolving market dynamics, and healthcare policy into clear, compelling content that elevates both competency and confidence across many audiences in the life sciences.”
“For so many years now, Laura has worked with us to make our publications the best they can be. She possesses a rare combination of skills: an ability to simplify complex subject matter for a nonexpert audience, high-level line editing proficiency, and deep knowledge of healthcare policy topics like coverage, access, and spending. To be honest, I don’t know what we’d do without her!”
“On occasion one may have the privilege to work with a vendor who becomes a critical member of your team. Laura is that person. For many years she has helped us to navigate the complexity of our programs through authentic storytelling, which enables us to cultivate journeys with our prospective students, continue our relationships with our alums, and recognize the importance of our donors. Because of Laura, we can continue meaningful projects that reach all of the communities we serve.”
“Laura has been instrumental as a writer on our large-scale academic medical center redesign. She is exceptionally dependable, consistently delivering high-quality content on time and on budget while navigating templates, branding guidelines, and additional client preferences. In addition to producing polished editorial work, she thoughtfully flags keyword opportunities for SEO optimization and URL structural improvements that strengthen the overall digital experience.”
“We consistently call upon Laura Hegwer for key assignments because of her strong
judgment, intellect and ability to quickly grasp complex topics. She delivers engaging
content that captures our organization’s voice and brand identity across multiple
audiences. The proof is in her long tenure with Rush, a trusted partner for over 25
years, we’ve been able to tell more complete stories because of Laura’s work across
complex, multistakeholder projects. We can always count on her to collaborate
seamlessly with our faculty and marketing communications team, and we often find
ourselves saying, ‘do you know who would do this really well?’ Laura would.”
