We welcome the opportunity to assist Ochsner authors with manuscripts. Our services run the gamut: substantive copyediting, formatting manuscripts, checking proofs, manuscript submission, and more. Not only will we edit for grammar, spelling, punctuation, organization, and mathematical errors—we’ll also verify references and check for consistency across figures, tables, and text. We’re professionals at maintaining your voice and the medical integrity of your text while suggesting improvements in language and clarity. We aim to return your reviewed materials within a week. Contact us to discuss the level of help you need and to set up an appointment.
