As a board certified and practicing Internal Medicine physician, I have spent over a decade inside the healthcare system—caring for adult patients, navigating clinical decision-making, and witnessing on the frontline how complex and fragmented care can become. I founded my patient advocacy practice to bridge the gap between medical expertise and the real-life challenges patients and families face outside the exam room. I can assist with any of the following: -Recommendations regarding coordinating care -Questions about medical care & second opinions -Understanding your diagnoses, medications & therapies -Navigating insurance denials & prior authorizations -Helping to organize all your health information in one place -Understanding and drafting a Healthcare Power of Attorney & Advanced Directives -Overcoming barriers to care -...and much more!
