In this panel discussion, we will explore the challenges individuals encounter in accessing healthcare, including disparities and diagnosis mismanagement, and provide insights on effective advocacy strategies. The session will feature a compelling case study detailing a woman's journey through the complexities of a brain tumor diagnosis and shedding light on the importance of empowerment and informed decision making in healthcare navigation. Additionally, this session will share a physician/professor's strategies around advocating for better healthcare for those you love, and a Yale expert's reflections on systemic changes that could improve all of our abilities to provide and receive optimized care.
