Fred Fletcher
Fred Fletcher is a hard working Consumer Advocacy Health Reporter. With 5+ years of graduate education in the health sciences, several post-graduate certificates/certifications, and a portfolio that includes over 10,000 manuscripts, he writes mostly about the healthcare industry and medical issues and developments. “An educated consumer,” he says, “is one of the best weapons we have for reducing healthcare costs, preventing abuses by unscrupulous healthcare providers and government agencies, and suitably managing threats like bioterrorism, new epidemics (e.g., Ebola virus disease), toxic chemicals in processed foods, natural and man-made disasters, etc.” Simply put, Fred wants to help his readers maximize their resources, make intelligent choices, and be the best they can be physically, emotionally and intellectually.
