The referrals lead nowhere, wait times are endless, and you’re constantly dismissed by doctors who make you feel like it’s all in your head. Meanwhile, you’re battling insurance denials and pondering over lab results with the nagging feeling that you’re alone in this fight.But you don’t have to face your battle alone!Kristina Kelly, a board certified patient advocate, guides you through the chaos with sass, strategy, and empathy.
