Patient Advocacy

For women, the possibility of experiencing medical gaslighting—having a healthcare provider dismiss or ignore their concerns without considering appropriate testing or creating a treatment plan—has always been a very real and present danger, with consequences ranging from self-doubt and emotional stress to delayed diagnosis and death. And being a woman of color, transgender, or disabled only compounds the risk. In Medical Gaslighting, you’ll equip yourself with the tools you need to be fully heard at every step of the process.

This is the ultimate guide and reference book for anyone who will use medical care or have insurance questions. If you don't have a professional advocate or someone to advocate on your behalf effectively, this is the advocate for you. Inside Patient Advocacy Matters II, you will find more updates from the first edition that keep up with the ever-changes tides of healthcare.
