Writer does hold medical degree

Just because I can’t be found on LinkedIn or Facebook hopefully doesn’t mean I don’t exist or can’t be fully retired.

EDITOR – Someone wrote a letter to Berea Mail which was published claiming my medical doctorate is fake, however I do have a doctorate through Stanford University.

I also have an undergraduate degree in Medical Microbiology. All my work is under confidentiality agreement due to the nature of it. I am free however to reference any already publicly available research with which I wasn’t involved. Regardless, the public health issues do not require any special degrees to be comprehensible, as they are available at the CDC.

Just because I can’t be found on LinkedIn or Facebook hopefully doesn’t mean I don’t exist or can’t be fully retired, enjoying hobbies such as photography and video production, while I still also work under confidentiality agreements in fact checking for certain firms.
