Medical Story Consulting
There are two types of consumers: those with a background in medicine and those without.
If you’re the type of consumer without a medical background, it’s possible you’ve been around your counterpart and witnessed the explosive, existential screech of a dying banshee that occurs when something medically inaccurate happens on screen… or on the page… or on a podcast… etc., etc.
(If you’re one of those people with a medical background whose response is, “It’s just entertainment. It’s fiction. It’s fine,” blah blah blah—get out of here. We aren’t your people.)
But I digress.
LogicLi’s founder has a… passion… for medical accuracy in media. We don’t know if it’s because she retains an alarming amount of information visually and medical inaccuracies feel like a personal insult, because she gets genuinely distressed watching bystanders stop CPR because Hollywood has convinced everyone that “they’re awake!” means “they’re alive!”, or because her OCD is simply that rampant.
Regardless, we love her the same.
When you combine her systems thinking with years of experience in emergency medicine, you get an ever-present awareness of the tiny details that make a medical scene feel believable—or immediately make someone in healthcare throw their remote across the room.
That’s where LogicLi comes in.
Our medical story consulting helps writers, filmmakers, podcasters, and other storytellers build medically believable scenes without requiring you to become an expert in medicine yourself. We can review scripts, storylines, scenes, character actions, terminology, procedures, and general medical logic to identify inaccuracies, inconsistencies, or moments that simply wouldn’t happen the way they’re portrayed.
Because medical accuracy isn’t just about whether someone said the right word.
It’s about whether the right person would be in the room.
Whether that procedure would actually happen in that order.
Whether the equipment being used makes sense.
Whether the patient could realistically be conscious, talking, walking, or dying at that point in the story.
Whether the healthcare system would respond the way you’ve written it.
And most importantly: whether the medicine serves the story rather than getting in its way.
We’re not here to tell you that your fictional character can’t do something because “that’s not how medicine works.” Fiction gets to bend reality.
We’re here to help you understand where reality bends, how far it can bend before someone notices, and how to make the impossible feel plausible when the story requires it.
Because suspension of disbelief is a fragile thing—and sometimes all it takes to destroy it is a paramedic watching your character perform CPR on the wrong area of a torso.
