WHO IS
THE WELLNESS CONCIERGE®? |
| |
 Marlene
R. Fedin
is a writer, editor, researcher, and patient advocate
who has covered travel and travel health since the
early '90s.
As a publishing, communications, and PR executive who
jetted and puddle-jumped her way through the U.S. and
abroad, she has first-hand experience with major
travel health ailments. But her real passion for
helping fellow travelers feel better and take better
care of themselves emerged when she launched The
Healthy Traveler column for a monthly magazine
targeted to business travelers.
Interviewing countless medical, aviation and other
healthcare and wellness advocates and practitioners
unearthed an overwhelming range of information that
she wanted to share with fellow travelers. Much of
what she uncovered was material that wasn't being
published in traditional media.
Marlene has written for publications such as
Consumer Reports, Fortune, Frequent
Flyer, and biztravel.com and was the
Editorial Director of SkyMalltravel.com and a
contributing editor of Frequent Flyer magazine,
SkyDisc in-flight CDs, and Frommer's Travel
Newsletter.
As a marketing communications, PR and media
consultant, she has developed advertorials,
newsletters, and other print and multimedia vehicles
for Fortune 500 companies as well as
entrepreneurial firms and startups in the health,
beauty, fitness, wellness, consumer products, and IT
industries.
Fedin is currently the Chief Wellness Advocate of
The
Romaine Group, a health and wellness
consultancy that provides marketing communications,
consulting, research, and educational products and
services to consumers, physicians, and private and
public companies.
Fedin maintains the company's 2,000-plus volume
wellness library and research center that is used to
compile custom Patient Guides and Reference kits.
Among her personal and professional associates, she is
known as the "go-to" person for health-and-wellness
data, information, and solutions. (One question will
net the seeker a ream of articles as well as
recommended actions!)
Fedin happily resides in New York City but her heart
and soul are split between San Francisco and Tuscany.
When she is not "flying"
around the Net researching medical and health news
(which seems to be
a 24/7 thing) or writing about the latest
developments, she is working on the creation of a
woman's nonprofit Health & Wellness Resource center in
New York City and the for-profit Villa Esperanza
Wellness & Empowerment Center.
Welcome to the cyber home of The Wellness
Concierge®. I’m glad you could take a few minutes
to visit.
