I. For patients: Letter from the CEO
Welcome,
My name is Dr. Mohammad Al-Ubaydli, and I created Patients Know Best to help patients better manage their care. I myself have a long-term illness and need help from lots of people, all of whom care about and contribute to my health.
But managing complex care is hard. I have to schedule appointments with a number of clinicians, manage my medications and co-ordinate with loved ones who participate in my care. 10 million people in the UK alone have long-term illnesses that need this kind of care, including diabetes, asthma and heart disease.
Over the years, I noticed that my clinical team was relying on me to know important information. This was not because I trained as a doctor myself, but because I was the only one who turned up to all the appointments! This is how patients know best. And this is why we built this web site—to give each patient better tools to manage their health.
