Why I Became A Professional Health Care Advocate
My passion for neurology and caring for patients and their families took a more personal note when I personally diagnosed my grandmother with Parkinsons becoming her provider along with her doctors in Mexico where she resided and then becoming her full time caregiver when my grandfather passed away. I later develop Parkinsons myself at a young age in the prime of my life while raising family and busy private practice ..given my unique perspective I felt I was uniquely positioned to advocate for my patients and other who had no voice and to improve everyone’s journey and quality of life with illness. I have published 3 books which have begun a movement around the globe in improving access to care decreasing discrepancies in care and in research.
