[Podcast] HypoPara Unscripted—More Than a Pharmacy; The Team Behind Your Treatment
What makes specialty pharmacy so special? In this episode of HypoPara Unscripted, Patty speaks with Katie Gillick, patient advocate at Orsini living with hypoparathyroidism, and pharmacist Michelle Hamblin, to show us how they get the only FDA approved hypoparathyroidism treatment in the hands of patients.
Together, Katie and Michelle tell us how specialty pharmacies are different from retail drug stores, including patient support, monitoring for side effects, and working with insurance companies, making it clear that although starting a new treatment can feel overwhelming, you won’t have to navigate it alone!
Katie shares her own personal journey with hypoparathyroidism, which shapes the care she gives to others, helping to carry out Orsini’s promise that no patient will ever be left behind.
