Show Notes

Patient advocates discuss how doctors and other providers can serve patient needs better

Guest surfer Anthony Villiotti, President of NASH kNOWledge, Inc. joins the Surfers. Tony and Surfer Donna Cryer, President & CEO of Global Liver Institute, discuss the way that better delivery of disease information and care can keep patients healthier longer and make them more knowledgeable about their disease. Too often patients are told not to worry about a fatty liver until the day they learn they need a transplant -- this has to stop! Learn how we developed our word of the week ("indoctrinologist"), why the "What? So what? Now what?" approach would be valuable, and how timely information and coordinated care will lead to better patient outcomes.
