Dr. Kaci Durbin is an obstetrician-gynecologist who transitioned from clinical practice to a fulfilling career in medical writing. After working as an OB hospitalist, she discovered medical writing as a nonclinical path that offered flexibility, intellectual challenge, and job security while still utilizing her medical expertise.

Dr. Durbin built her portfolio and professional network from scratch, starting with freelance CME and regulatory writing projects. She shares her journey from securing her first writing gigs to eventually landing a full-time position as a medical writer and technical writer for a Contract Research Organization (CRO), where she now focuses on clinical trial documentation.

During our interview, Dr. Durbin provides actionable advice for physicians interested in breaking into medical writing, including the pros and cons of freelancing versus full-time employment, key resources and courses for newcomers, and strategies for leveraging clinical experience. Her story offers a practical roadmap for doctors seeking remote, flexible work outside of direct patient care.
