Advancing pediatric diagnostic access, reducing medical trauma, and helping healthcare teams see what they've been missing.
I believe every child deserves access to diagnosis—not just access to testing.
My work sits at the intersection of pediatric laboratory medicine, child development, and diagnostic safety, helping healthcare organizations identify and solve barriers that occur before a laboratory result ever exists.
Helping children reach diagnosis by improving what happens before analysis.
WHY MY WORK MATTERS
As a pediatric phlebotomist, I noticed something no one seemed to be measuring: children whose diagnostic journey ended before a specimen was ever collected.
That observation became Access Before Analysis—a growing initiative exploring one of the hidden gaps in pediatric healthcare.
Topics include:
Pediatric Diagnostic Access
Access Before Analysis
Pediatric Medical Trauma
Behavioral Preparation
Laboratory Quality Improvement
Healthcare Innovation
