About Me

Joey Freeman
This blog is intended to highlight articles in medicine and healthcare that are of interest to me and may provide perspectives to my clients, the members of the student clubs I advise, and members of the the general public who are interested in health/medicine. I do not intend this blog to be a complete news source. I do try to identify articles that contain information not found everywhere.
