DR. CARTWRIGHT'S UNIQUE APPROACH
TO SCIENTIFIC EDUCATION

Martina M. Cartwright, Ph.D., R.D. is one of America's leading scientists, graduating with degrees from both the University of Arizona and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She has studied many facets of science for over 25 years, and regularly serves as a consultant to  patients, biotechnology companies and medical professionals.

Dr. Cartwright's approach to  scientific education is unique and unmatched among her peers, in that she integrates her expertise as a Basic Scientist, Clinician, Compliance expert, Researcher and Author.  As a clinician in critical care and nutritional science, she strives to educate patients on the physical, emotional, financial and spiritual aspects that drive nutrition decision-making. Whether her client is a child struggling with weight issues, an older adult with a nutrition-sensitive disease, or a nurse or physician looking to improve care of their critically ill patients, Martina strives to improve patient outcomes through diverse strategies that empower enduring change.

Dr. Cartwright has a knack for easily communicating complex science  so it's easy for everyone to understand. Her engaging presentations and one-on-one consultations address many scientific concepts. From describing the complexities of how diseases affect the body to explaining how drugs or medical devices work, Martina strives to make science simple.  Patients, students, peers and media seek her advice on a number of scientific  topics. 

"Complete health involves physiological, psychological, emotional, spiritual and financial aspects. All of these play a role in well-being. I use the latest science, coupled with individual needs to guide people on their journey towards optimal health. Communicating the 'scientific-why' behind medical strategies empowers individuals to make more healthful decisions based on their own unique set of circumstances."

"The science of medicine is complex and ever changing. Plus, the availability of medical information is overwhelming. My ability to interpret, integrate and communicate the tsunami of medical science information into practical easy-to-understand solutions is something I excel at and thoroughly enjoy."
