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?”

Research:

I’m excited to be working on original research again. My most recent public project was the first nationally-representative survey measuring U.S. households affected by rare and undiagnosed illnesses. Here’s the full report.

Book:

My book, Rebel Health: A Field Guide to the Patient-Led Revolution in Medical Care, is now out in paperback and my primary focus 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: contact.susannah.fox@gmail.com (note: include the whole phrase).

Media coverage:

Advisory work:

I’m continuing to advise AHIP, Archangels, Warmer, and Equip. I serve on the board of directors for Cambia Health Solutions. I am also a member of Google’s Consumer Health Advisory Panel.

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: contact.susannah.fox@gmail.com

Featured image: The lovely endorsement of Rebel Health shared by Esther Perel, psychotherapist; author of Mating in Captivity; host of Where Should We Begin: “In the age of rapid health advancements, Fox reminds us that no amount of tech can replace the support of others who have gone or are going through similar struggles—the relieving elixir of what she calls ‘just-in-time someone-like-me.'”
