We started the Waiting Room Revolution because, over and over, we met patients and families living with a life-changing illness who felt unprepared, overwhelmed, and stuck searching for answers in the waiting room. As a physician and a researcher, we knew people could have a better illness experience if they had the same insider knowledge clinicians take for granted. So we created a social movement through our podcast, books, and community to give everyone the skills to navigate illness with confidence and to have more choice and control.

The Waiting Room Revolution Podcast
A podcast about unlocking the secrets to a better illness experience.
This podcast can help anyone dealing with serious illness. Over the years, we have cared for and interviewed thousands of patients and families who tell us they felt overwhelmed and ‘in the dark’ during their illness journey. Yet we sometimes heard stories where individuals felt prepared, in control and ‘in the know.’ Join your hosts Dr. Samantha Winemaker, palliative care doctor, and Dr. Hsien Seow, health care researcher, as they share real-life stories to explain the 7 keys to being hopeful and prepared when facing serious illness.
