Here at Collaborative Patient Advocacy, we believe that people are important — and we’re here to listen and help relieve some of your burden.
We have over 20 years of experience in a number of healthcare settings.
We can quickly locate resources that may be difficult for you to find on your own.
We introduce new solutions that can be often overlooked within the emotional nature of constant caregiving.
We work with you to address your top priorities first.
We can work with you on short-term issues for acute conditions or develop a longer-term relationship with those experiencing chronic conditions…or meet you in the middle.
We don’t work for the hospital and we don’t work for insurance companies — we work for YOU and with YOU.
No one should go through tough situations alone.
