Susannah Fox

I help people navigate health and technology.

Now

Now

This is my public declaration of priorities, inspired by the /now page movement started by Derek Sivers.

Put another way, it’s my answer to “What are you doing now?”

Book:

My book, Rebel Health: A Field Guide to the Patient-Led Revolution in Medical Care, is out in the world and my primary focus through the fall of 2024 is promoting it widely. If you would like to invite me to speak at your event or to be a guest on your podcast, please email: contactsusannahfox@gmail.com

I wrote the book for two groups of people:

  1. Anyone who feels alone, forgotten, or lost in the shadows of suffering, whether they are navigating a new diagnosis or life with a chronic condition. Patients, survivors, and caregivers will learn new skills and how to deploy them for themselves and their loved ones.
  2. Anyone working inside health care who is fed up with the status quo. If they are ready to create positive change – improve health outcomes, keep people safe, find effective treatments, or bring better products and services to the market – they need new allies and strategies. Rebels are standing by to help.

Health care needs to invite the rebels inside, to connect them with the resources they need to test and scale their ideas.

Patient-led innovation:

I am building a list of organizations and companies led by patients, survivors, and caregivers as a way to amplify their work. If you have a suggestion for an addition to that list, email: contactsusannahfox@gmail.com

Work:

I’m continuing to advise Archangels, Equip, BandHealth, and the Light Collective. I serve on the boards of directors for Cambia Health Solutions and Smart Health Network.
