Join us for a powerful episode with Dr. Allison Bontempo, postdoctoral research fellow at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, as we uncover the complexities of endometriosis and the lived experiences of those affected. With a personal connection to the disease, Dr. Bontempo transformed a class project into a groundbreaking global study involving thousands, shedding light on the significant diagnostic delays that patients endure.
In this episode, we explore the critical role of patient-provider communication in shaping both mental and physical health outcomes. Dr. Bontempo shares insights into how the dismissal of patient experiences impacts care and how her research is bridging the gap between clinical practices and patient needs. We dive deep into ethical considerations, balancing personal experiences with professional research, and the power of inclusivity in medical studies.
Discover how social media is amplifying diverse patient voices, and learn about innovative tools, like new measures to assess perceived invalidation in healthcare, that aim to drive meaningful change. Dr. Bontempo also discusses the importance of community and collaboration in advancing the care of chronic illnesses, emphasizing the need for continued education among clinicians.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone invested in improving healthcare outcomes for endometriosis and other chronic conditions. It’s more than just a conversation—it’s a call to action to contribute to research that can change lives and reshape the future of compassionate healthcare.
