Did you know that 32% of people in the UK and 60% in North America have a chronic condition? And the lifetime risk of being diagnosed with an invasive cancer is estimated at 1 in 2 people? That’s a lot of illness! Chances are disease will impact your life either personally, or in someone you love.

‘Help the Doctor Help You’ is a comprehensive, easy-to-read, must have if you’ve ever felt like a doctor has more power than you or if you’ve felt rushed by them or if you feel like they just aren’t really listening to your concerns and suggestions. It’s for your mom, who you feel stubbornly won’t let you in the room with them and forgets what the doctor said. It’s for your friend who has just been diagnosed with diabetes or cancer. It’s for anyone who might ever need a doctor. Advocating for yourself isn’t fighting for your rights. ‘Help the Doctor Help You’ is the NEW and BETTER way to self-advocate!

“Thanks to over 39 years of living with chronic illness, Susie is the definition of an expert patient. She comes to her appointments prepared, asks good questions and knows her body well. Not only do I strive to help her manage her symptoms, but also value her input in my research and educational efforts when it comes to diabetes and gastroparesis. It was Susie I asked to write the patient perspective in an article written by my colleagues and myself, for the Journal of Patient-Centered Research and Reviews. We have a mutual trust and respect that is often lacking in the ‘doctor/patient’ relationship. Susie can help get you there.”
