personal Health consulting and Advocacy

WHAT IS ROOT?

The Power of Information and Inclusion

I meet with clients 1:1 or with their family (chosen or biological) to work with them from a framework of patient centered empowerment. This is done through information, collaboration and inclusion.

Root can assist with:

• Connecting/ communicating care between loved ones, who can’t physically be in the same place

• Decrease anticipatory fear/ discuss what to expect BEFORE planned hospitalizations, birth of a child, surgery or other scheduled events

• Navigating medical appointments

•  Helping you prioritize, track and organize your care

• Deciphering medical jargon 

• Setting-up a home routine after recent hospitalization

• Helping you organize questions for an upcoming medical appointment

• I also support and ensure your voice, opinions, questions and concerns are heard and addressed appropriately by your Doctors and other medical providers.

What to expect from initial complimentary phone consultation:

This time gives me an opportunity to learn about you, your primary questions/ concerns, and why you have contacted Root Personal Health. In most cases, by the end of the consultation we will be able to determine if we are a good fit for one another, and propose a formal initial appointment and action plan moving forward.
