Finding doctors who listen is key to making a diagnosis

"I very strongly recommend Dr. Brita Lundberg to anyone who is considering working with a health advocate. Brita is worth her weight in gold, for so many reasons.When I first contacted Brita about my case, I had been partially disabled by a combination of neurological and cardiac symptoms for two years and had visited over 20 doctors and physical therapists who...

either had no idea what was wrong and suggested my symptoms were a result of anxiety, or who knew exactly what was wrong and had an expensive but medically unapproved therapy in mind for me. I needed Brita to help me navigate the possible medical diagnoses while steering clear of quack or ineffectual “cures.”

She came through for me beautifully. She started by patiently interviewing me for several hours about the history of my case. Then she thoroughly read every shred of my medical record, which was no small task, as I had seen four neurologists, a cardiologist, a rheumatologist, and a “multiple systems specialist” (among many others) and had multiple brain and spine MRIs as well as countless lab tests. She is the only medical practitioner I have worked with who has actually read my whole file. This comprehensive look at my symptoms and tests proved invaluable, as she was able to focus in on the most significant details of my case. After this thorough and comprehensive review, Brita called upon her extensive network of contacts to find the best spine surgeon and cardiologist available to me in the Denver area. Even more important than her excellent referrals was the personal support she gave me through these medical explorations. Brita knew that I had trouble getting some doctors to take my symptoms seriously, since neurological symptoms can be vague and subjective, so she either spoke to my doctors beforehand or and/or attended several appointments with me by phone. Her advocacy and presence instantly and noticeably raised the level of respect I received from the new doctors, who might have otherwise been dismissive of my case. This intangible benefit of working with Brita cannot be underestimated.

I am grateful for Brita’s intelligence, thoroughness, professionalism, empathy, and persistence. Without the benefit of her advocacy, I am certain I would still be stuck in a medical morass. She is a godsend.”
