Why I Became A Professional Health Care Advocate
Helping my parents coordinate the care of my chronically ill sibling was my first challenging healthcare experience. We struggled with obtaining diagnosis, explanation of test results, and decent communication between providers. These unacceptable practices prompted my interest to become a healthcare professional and advocate. Navigating the healthcare system as a patient, immigrant, then as a caregiver to my aging parents, has significantly improved my appreciation for distinct communication. Caring for patients with diagnosis of chronic illnesses, such as cancer, over the past decades has enlightened me to the crucial role of health advocates.
