Research Program

​My research focuses on improving patient experience. My work targets three areas crucial to patient experience: diagnostic error, the patient-clinician relationship, and patient support networks including online communities. My work seeks to better understand how patient relationships with clinicians work in concert with patients' broader support networks outside of the healthcare system to shape the patient experience, particularly around issues of diagnosis. My current work focuses on patients with endometriosis.
