My Healthcare Advocate is our name for our Personal Healthcare Advocacy work.

We are truly independent professional personal advocacy consultants who you can trust.

Whilst many people may rely on family members or friends to help navigate the health system or assist them to make sense of health-related information, sometimes you need a professional. 

My Healthcare Advocate consultants are truly independent professionals who you can trust.
