Client Feedback
“Recently little Miss 6 presented to hospital with a suspected elbow fracture. On call ED doctor was a bit vague as to the outcome of the X-ray. Spoke to Kate and she gave us some very good clarifying questions to ask at follow up appointment the next day. Without this we would have probably have muddled through not knowing exactly what was going on.”
“Kate from Patient Advocacy Plus was fantastic. At a time when I felt like I had been lost in the hospital system and had been on a waiting list for months, she listened calmly to my health problems, helped me navigate my way through the maze of the health care system and gave me informed choices. Kate is worth her weight in gold and I would highly recommend Patient Advocacy Plus to anyone seeking advice or just needing guidence. I will definitely be using her again.”
“I often (always) seek advice from Kate Hoskin when I am uncertain or in need of extra information or support in navigating anything health care related. Now you can too! This is truly where passion, knowledge and profession align.”
