History
Established in 2013.
Dr Abod was first introduced to patient advocacy when her father was deprived of medical care on a cruise ship. During her father’s health crisis, she worked within the healthcare system and with a team of providers in a thorough, thoughtful, and passionate manner. As a patient advocate, Dr. Abod applies the same level of commitment, compassion, and perseverence to meet her client’s needs.
