Start with a private conversation
Call John or send a consultation request. You can describe the immediate concern without sharing sensitive medical details through the website.
How It Works
How It Works: a clear process from the first call forward.
Advocacy should reduce confusion, not add to it. John explains the scope, expectations, and fees before you decide to proceed.
Decide whether advocacy is a fit
John listens, asks a few practical questions, and explains whether his experience and availability match the situation.
Complete the initial consultation
The required initial consultation is four hours, costs $800 total, and is paid in advance before it occurs.
Gather and organize
Depending on the engagement, John may help create a timeline, organize records, prepare questions, or plan for an upcoming conversation.
Advocate and communicate
John works with you and, when authorized in writing or through provider-accepted verbal permission for a specific conversation, communicates collaboratively with relevant care professionals.
Review next steps
You receive a clear understanding of what was discussed, what remains open, and who is responsible for each agreed follow-up.
What to expect
Direct communication and a defined scope.
John tells you what he can do, what he cannot do, and when another qualified professional is the right person to address a concern.
Before work begins, confirm:
- The priorities for the engagement
- Which tasks are included
- How John will communicate with you
- The applicable fees, 30-minute billing increments, and payment expectations
- Any records, written HIPAA authorization, or provider-accepted verbal permission needed
A calm first conversation
You do not have to navigate this alone.
Tell John what is happening. He will listen, explain whether advocacy may be a fit, and outline a clear next step.
