David Letsa

I’m a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) and Senior Medical Writer with extensive experience in medical communications, regulatory writing, and digital patient education. I synthesize complex scientific data into compliant, high-impact content that aligns with client objectives and regulatory standards.

At Fortrea, I lead the development of high-quality scientific content for complex accounts—particularly for Obesity and Type 2 diabetes—ensuring alignment with strategic objectives and industry regulations. I manage multiple publication timelines and deliverables as the primary point of contact for scientific accuracy and content strategy, while providing senior-level review and quality control for junior writers.

Previously at Roche, I delivered over 60 medical writing projects, creating and editing scientific content for digital channels across Oncology. As a freelance Scientific & Medical Writer, I develop health-related content for diverse audiences, produce video scripts and slide decks, perform keyword research, and specialize in medical editing and literature synthesis into accessible, SEO-friendly formats.
