Reader Takes is a regular feature where selected op-ed style pieces from the audience at KevinMD.com will be published on the blog.

Posts are between 500 and 600 words in length, and can argue any opinion related to medicine and health care.

Articles that are provocative, well-written, free of grammatical or spelling errors, and generally follow these guidelines are preferred.

Pieces that have not been published elsewhere are more likely to be
accepted, and not all submissions are guaranteed to be published.

A link to the author’s book, blog, or website will be included.

Here are some sample guest pieces that have been published in the past.

If you are interested in submitting a take for consideration, please contact me.
