The Liz Army:
A blog
Patient. Patient advocate. Researcher. Student.
There are more than 500 posts here. Use this search to look for something specific. Good luck!
A note about my oldest posts: I began blogging about brain cancer in 2008, at age 29. I had no background or knowledge about healthcare when I started. Please excuse typos and other misconceptions. What you read here is me in real time, like a time capsule.
The real publications are the friends we made along the way*
After nine years of working at the intersection of patient advocacy and health services research, this is my last week with OpenNotes at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. Over these nine years, my role transformed. When Cait DesRoches offered me a job, I had no idea it would be the longest job I’d ever had, or that it would lead to a vision of what I would do next.
