' In this business you meet a lot of wafflers and wannabes. Jane is in a different league. She runs a tight ship and in the 20 years I have known her, she has been relentless in her commitment and passion. She can talk to anyone and can find a story in anything.'
Mark Morri, Chief Of Staff, The Daily Telegraph
'Jane's contributions to health reporting, particularly in the area of mental health have been outstanding. This is not an easy area of health to report accurately and in an engaging or personal way. Jane keeps the science understandable and the messages simple and newsworthy. In my view, she has been a real pioneer in Australia in this field.'
Professor Ian Hickie, Director of the Brain & Mind Research Institute, Sydney University
' Jane Worthington is one of the most highly regarded health journalists in Australia. I have had the fortune of working with Jane and couldn't recommend her highly enough.'
Robyn Foyster, Editor, Australian Women's Weekly - Australia's biggest selling women's magazine
' Jane has enviable contacts in the health arena and is a dedicated and innovative writer and manager with a wealth of experience. She has a wonderful capacity to make the most complex medical messages easy to understand and it is always a great pleasure to work with her.'
A/Professor John Gullotta AM, Past President Australian Medical Association NSW
' Breast cancer is a matter of life and death, so it's essential that accurate and timely information is disseminated to the public. Jane has proven to be a professional and effective journalist who has raised the profile of breast cancer and strengthened medical and media relationships through initiatives such as the Medical Media Awards. She has a distinct knack for deciphering complex issues to produce informative, readable and relevant articles.'
A/Professor John Boyages, Director, Breast Cancer Institute (BCI) NSW Australia
'Jane can find a front page angle in the most mundane of subjects. Apart from her journalistic skills, her musical talents (and those of her husband George!) are equally impressive. Managing to get Australia's key medical opinion leaders on the stage at the Medical Media Awards was the most creative approach to events management I have ever seen.'
Dr John D'arcy, television and radio veteran
