Dr. Abramowicz joined The Medical Letter in 1972 as Editor, carrying forward the mission established by founders Arthur Kallet and Dr. Harold Aaron: to provide independent, unbiased evaluations of new pharmaceuticals and new indications for previously approved drugs.

A pediatrician by training and a journalist at heart, Dr. Abramowicz’s career has always reflected his passion for medicine and clear communication. Before joining The Medical Letter, he trained at Boston City Hospital, served as a Captain in the U.S. Army Medical Corps, and was a full-time member of the Department of Pediatrics at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine.

Over the past decade, Dr. Abramowicz has worked closely with Jean-Marie Pflomm, Pharm.D., Editor-in-Chief, to ensure a smooth transition. Dr. Pflomm will assume the role of President beginning in January 2026, continuing to guide The Medical Letter’s commitment to rigorous, independent medical review.

We extend our heartfelt appreciation to Dr. Abramowicz for his wisdom, guidance, and deep commitment to The Medical Letter for over 50 years.
