What a delight to have Sarah L. Berry, PhD present a faculty development session for the narrative medicine facilitators at Quinnipiac University Frank H. Netter MD School of Medicine. Sarah's consultant talents shined bright as she guided MD facilitators to link close-reading strategies with clinical care. Brava!

Sarah's expertise on American literature, extensive knowledge of Medical Humanities scholarship, as well as the field's institutional history and development in baccalaureate and medical programs, is unsurpassed. She is a tremendous teacher; a highly innovative, organized, and agile thinker and writer; and a wonderful colleague. My continuing work in and commitment to build up the Medical Humanities at my current institution (and in my own research and teaching) is indelibly tied to Sarah's generosity and inspiring conversations over the years on the topic. I highly recommend Sarah and would be happy to provide a more detailed recommendation upon request.

Sarah is a powerful educator, a skilled facilitator, and an expert in curricular development in DEI and Health Humanities. Sarah connects with her audience and uses effective discussion techniques to get people talking. She also has a keen insight into curricular development--I saw her create with colleagues a whole new proposal for a Health Humanities curriculum at my institution that was ground-breaking. She uses her research to create evidence-based techniques for improving education. And she has years of experience as a crystal-clear and empowering communicator. I highly recommend her services!
