"Medical gaslighting" is  the act of a healthcare provider dismissing or ignoring your concerns — and can lead to delayed or even missed diagnoses and opportunities for treatment. But what's the difference between medical gaslighting and a heathcare system not set up as effectively and efficiently as it could/should be? And more importantly: what can YOU do about it?

In this episode with Ilana Jaqueline, patient advocacy strategist and author of the new book MEDICAL GASLIGHTING: How to Get the Care You Deserve in a System that Makes You Fight for Your Life, we talk about:

  • How to be a proactive patient
  • The difference between medical gaslighting vs the American healthcare system
  • Specific tools and strategies to bring with you to the doctor’s office
  • Ilana's journey with chronic illness, from symptoms to diagnosis to treatment
  • How to build trust with the medical community, especially if you’ve been burned before
  • How to help your doctors check their biases (and you check yours!)
  • What makes a great doctor, and what SPECIFICALLY you should look for
  • What makes a great patent, and the SPECIFIC line-by-line script of how to be one
  • Copay assistance programs and little-known financial tips

and more!
