Episode Synopsis

In this compelling episode, we dive into the heart of patient advocacy—the real work, the emotional weight, and the ripple effect it creates across healthcare. Our conversation explores the challenges patient advocates face, the courage it takes to share personal health stories, and how these stories have the power to reshape healthcare policies, systems, and clinical culture.We discuss why patient voices must be heard from the beginning—not after the decisions have already been made. Whether you're new to advocacy or a seasoned storyteller, this episode is a reminder that lived experience is not just valid—it’s vital. Because when patients speak, healthcare listens.DeAnna DuBose ~Senior Director, Corporate Patient Engagement Edwards Lifesciences https://www.edwards.com/patients-care-partners/patient-resources
