Why have dozens of clients trusted me with their scientific work in the past several years?
Using an independent proofreader is superior to using a large commercial editing company in many ways.
I may be a tad biased, but working closely with such companies has taught me what to expect:
Hundreds of nameless, underpaid, disgruntled freelancers with zero loyalty to the company or client and with skyrocketing turnover; complex, bureaucratic support, full with abbreviations, tickets and request submissions; pricing plans that practically guarantee inferior service for any plan below the premium one; robotic editing, ignoring specific situations and needs; excessive politeness, preferring to keep a client appeased over implying that radical changes are needed.
I do things differently. Just look at the examples. Without any business platform I was able to gain dozens of loyal clients by word-of-mouth. I treat each document as if my own career depended on it. Having reviewed dozens of manuscripts for peer-reviewed journals, I think like a reviewer when editing and I don't spare criticism.
Being a published scientist, I know the system—its inner workings, limitations, shortcomings; the things you can write and the ones you can't; and what's expected of you as an author in 2018. Language and writing flaws should not stand in your way to publishing.
Have you noticed that I write, too? Journal editors and former clients describe my style as "razor-sharp and staggeringly lucid". I am joyfully versatile, smoothly gliding between topics and modes and excellent at researching a subject. I've written deeply technical reviews alongside borderline copyediting, all on the same week!
I'd love to help you with your next project.

PS. Texarkana (without 't'!) is the name of two American cities that lie side-by-side on the border between Texas and Arkansas!
More PS. My PhD in biology has never precluded me from editing and writing articles of any scientific discipline whatsoever! I've edited articles in psychology, international relations, linguistics. If I can't handle a topic, you can trust that I'll tell you before I start.
