Description
Are you tired of feeling lost and overwhelmed in the healthcare system? Do you want to regain control of your health journey and make informed decisions with confidence? If so, then this podcast is for you.
I am a Doctor of Medical Science, author, a mother and a Board Certified Patient Advocate who has worked in healthcare for over 25 years. I have been the provider, the patient, the daughter, the sister, and the parent facing the overwhelming healthcare system; and left feeling alone and confused. Navigating your health and managing your healthcare is challenging, but it's a lot better when we go through it together.
Are you ready to take charge of your healthcare journey? It's time to Ask the Patient Advocate!
