There is an endless amount of medical information online today, yet it is incredibly hard for patients with chronic diseases to find detailed, trustworthy information to answer their questions. It is this lack of quality information online that causes doctors to steer patients away from “Dr. Google”, yet, patients still go online in search of answers because they don’t have enough time with their doctors or because questions arise when they aren’t with their doctors. Something needs to change.
We are here to empower patients and improve their health.
At Trusted Therapies, we are bringing together passionate international experts to answer questions that patients ask us every day. We are excited to share our knowledge with a much larger audience of patients than we can see in our practices.
If you have any questions or feedback, we’d love to hear it (Contact Us).
Sincerely,
Dr. Brian Bressler
