Patrick Marshwell

Patrick Marshwell writes for the conditions most health content skips over — the rare, the complicated, the ones with names most people can't pronounce on the first try. After spending years helping a close friend navigate a diagnosis with almost no accessible information available, he built a habit of digging through medical literature and specialist resources, then organizing what he found into guides that don't require a clinical background to understand. His focus is precision: what's known, what's uncertain, and what's actually worth trying. Patrick is not a physician, and his guides are designed to support conversations with your care team, not replace them. When he's not buried in research papers, he's rebuilding mechanical keyboards or losing sleep over a crossword.
