What do your medical writing services include?

Our medical writing services cover two tracks: academic and scientific writing (original research manuscripts, systematic review and meta-analysis manuscripts, review articles, case reports, abstracts, and posters) and regulatory and clinical writing (clinical study reports, clinical evaluation report support, and submission documents). Every project is written by a PhD medical writer and quoted at a fixed fee before work begins.

Can I hire a medical writer for a single manuscript?

Yes. You can hire a medical writer for one manuscript, one clinical document, or ongoing work. A PhD medical writer matched to your field is assigned to your project, backed by an editorial team and biostatisticians. You get a mutual non-disclosure agreement on request, a deadline guarantee, and unlimited revisions.

How are you different from a freelance medical writer?

A lone freelance medical writer can vary in subject expertise, reliability, and data security. As a medical writing company, we match you with a PhD writer, add editorial and biostatistics review, protect your unpublished data with a mutual non-disclosure agreement, and guarantee your deadline. You get freelancer flexibility with professional-team accountability.

Is your medical writing service considered ghostwriting?

No. Our involvement is transparently disclosed through co-authorship or acknowledgment, consistent with ICMJE authorship criteria. You retain full intellectual ownership of the work, and authorship arrangements are agreed before the project starts.

Do you offer regulatory medical writing and clinical study reports?

Yes. We write clinical study reports with structured results narratives, support clinical evaluation reports that synthesize clinical evidence, and prepare supporting submission documents. These documents reward methodological rigor and accurate statistical reporting, which is the core strength of our PhD team.

Can you format the manuscript for a specific journal?

Yes. We analyze your target journal author guidelines and format the manuscript accordingly, including word limits, citation style, abstract structure, figure requirements, and supplementary materials. A cover letter draft is included.

How much do medical writing services cost?

Pricing is fixed before work begins, with no upfront deposit and payment after delivery. The fee depends on document type and length, how complete your source material is, and turnaround. Send us the document type, your data, and your deadline for a fixed quote within minutes.

Can you also handle the statistical analysis?

Yes. Our biostatistics consulting team can run the analysis in R or Stata with reproducible code and deliver the written manuscript together, so the statistics and the write-up are consistent.

What our medical writing services cover

Medical writing services turn raw data, study results, and clinical findings into clear, accurate, publication-ready and submission-ready documents. At Research Gold, every project is handled by a PhD medical writer with a peer-reviewed publication record, not a generalist copywriter. We cover two distinct tracks under one roof:

Academic and scientific medical writing: original research manuscripts, systematic review and meta-analysis manuscripts, review articles, case reports, conference abstracts, and posters. This is the work researchers also search for as scientific article writing or a research paper writing service: we draft your study into a finished paper rather than editing one you already have.
Regulatory writing: clinical study reports, clinical evaluation report support, and regulatory submission documents, the core of regulatory medical writing, led by writers with the biostatistics and methodology depth these documents demand.

Whether you need a single journal article or a full clinical document, you get a matched writer, a transparent scope, and a fixed quote before any work begins.

Academic versus regulatory medical writing

Not all is the same, and the right writer depends on the document.

If your draft is already written and you only need language polishing, our academic editing service is the better fit. If you need the document written from your data, that is medical writing.

Reporting guidelines we follow

We adhere to the reporting guidelines recommended by the EQUATOR Network for each study type:

CONSORT for randomized controlled trials
STROBE for observational studies (cohort, case-control, cross-sectional)
PRISMA 2020 for systematic reviews and meta-analyses
PRISMA-ScR for scoping reviews
STARD for diagnostic accuracy studies
CARE for case reports
MOOSE for meta-analyses of observational studies
CHEERS for health economic evaluations

What drives the cost of medical writing

Pricing on our medical writing services is fixed before work begins, with no upfront deposit and payment after delivery. The fee is driven by three things:

Document type and length. A short case report or conference abstract sits at the lighter end. A full original research manuscript or medical manuscript writing project sits in the middle. A complete clinical study report or clinical evaluation report, with its structured narrative and appendices, is the largest scope.
Source material. If you have clean data, statistical outputs, and a clear protocol, drafting is faster. If we also run the analysis, our biostatistics and statistical analysis support is scoped into the quote.
Turnaround. Standard turnaround on a manuscript is one to four weeks. Rush turnaround is available at a higher rate for grant and submission deadlines.

Send us the document type, your data, and your deadline, and you receive a fixed quote within minutes.
