In this episode of Talking HealthTech, host Sophie Turner interviews Chris Pymble, founder and CEO of Graphics et al. Chris is an anatomist and a passionate scientific communicator who recognised the need for better patient education in the healthcare industry. Chris shares her insights and experiences in bridging the gap between healthcare education and patient needs.


Key Takeaways:

- Patient education is often neglected in the healthcare industry, leading to a reliance on unreliable online sources for health information.

- Empowering individuals through healthcare education can help them take control of their own health.

- There is a significant disparity between patient literacy levels and the complexity of health literature, creating communication challenges.

- Incorporating accessible education materials, such as diagrams, animations, and patient journals, can improve understanding and engagement.

- Healthcare systems, clinics, and hospitals have a responsibility to prioritise and implement effective patient education initiatives.
