Why do I need a Professional Health Advocate?

The Simple Answer: 
PEACE OF MIND

When dealing with a new diagnosis such as cancer or a chronic illness such as dementia, many patients and their loved ones feel overwhelmed navigating the healthcare system and processing the information out there.  
​
Hiring a Professional Health Advocate can take some of the burden off your shoulders and give patients and loved ones the chance to help each other as family and friends instead of turning into nurses and helpmaids for each other.  See our list of Services for ways your Advocate can help you.

"When I went through major surgery, Kathy was an integral part of my health care team.  One thing that made me very comfortable with Kathy's support is that she has many years of experience in the health care field as a pharmacist.   I whole-heartedly recommend Kathy McMillan as a patient advocate.  She is knowledgeable, kind and supportive.  I can't imagine what my experience would have been like without her by my side."  -- Kim M. 

"When my birth control device Essure started shutting my body down my doctors didn't know what to do or where to start correcting the problem.  They started with different medicines and tests but never really took the time to explain what was happening to me.  I reached out to Kathy for help.  I needed someone to explain all the different medicines and their side effects to me.  Kathy took the time to help me research the medications and tests that were being done and she researched the few doctors who were pushing to remove this device from women and the market.  I was incapable of making phone calls due to my stroke like symptoms so Kathy called for me and asked all the questions I needed.  I would highly recommend her not only for her knowledge but for how much she cares.  I wouldn't be where I am today without her.  Thank you Kathy!"  ~ Holly P.
