Meet Emily
Board-Certified Patient Advocate & Founder of Healthcare Uncomplicated
For new patients and caregivers who feel lost in the system, I help you make sense of what's happening so you can focus on what matters: your health and the people you love.
Whether you've just gotten a new diagnosis or suddenly find yourself managing a loved one's care, the healthcare system can feel impossible to figure out. Overwhelming bills, confusing documents from your insurance company, and rushed appointments can leave you frustrated and unsure where to turn.
Healthcare is complicated, and that's why I started Healthcare Uncomplicated. I know how lonely and stressful it can feel when all you want is a clear answer and you can't get one.
My goal is to cut through the confusing language and explain what actually matters in plain English, so you have the knowledge and confidence to make good decisions and get back to living your life.
I know how important this work is because I've lived it in two ways.
For more than 17 years, I've managed my own chronic health conditions, navigating countless doctors, insurance battles, and treatments. And in 2017, my husband, Jarrod, was diagnosed with colorectal cancer. For seven years, I coordinated every detail of his care so he could focus not just on treatment, but on living life as fully as possible. We called this "my job," and he wanted me to keep doing for others what I had done for him.
Jarrod passed away in December 2023. Honoring his wish, and drawing on my own lived experience, is why I'm here today: to help patients and caregivers navigate the same challenges I faced, with clarity, compassion, and confidence.
Along with my personal experience, I am a Board-Certified Patient Advocate (BCPA). This certification shows I have the knowledge and skills to help patients and families navigate the healthcare system with clarity and compassion.
I give you the shortcuts, tools, and guidance you need to handle the system yourself. I'm not doing it for you. I'm making sure you never feel lost doing it alone.
Because time isn't something you can get back, and you shouldn't have to waste it fighting the system.
If you are reading this and thinking "this is me," you don't have to figure it out alone.
You don't have to do this alone, and it doesn't have to be this hard.
