Join us as we delve into the experiences of patients with long-term complex conditions who are often met with disapproval or suspicion by medical professionals for being knowledgeable about their own health. Our guest, Denise Reich, a patient advocate, shares her insights on balancing self-advocacy with medical care, navigating the health care system, and the emotional impact of distrust from doctors. We explore effective strategies for patients to advocate for themselves, the role of patient advocacy organizations, and how health care professionals can better support and collaborate with informed patients.
Denise Reich is a patient advocate.
She discusses the KevinMD article, “The dichotomy of patient health literacy.”
