Ep91: Pulling Up The Curtain: Patient Data Access, Health Literacy and Democratizing Information w/Brent Dial

A conversation with Brent Dial

To Brent Dial, the pursuit of health is about three things: agency, education, and collaboration.

And that’s exactly what Beek Health, the start-up he co-founded earlier this year, are all about.

Beek are on a mission to revolutionize the bloated patient data process: reducing wasted time, resources and patient stress. Gone are repeated scans, poor communication and unnecessary surgeries.

By putting the power into the patient's hands, their innovative combination of health literacy, technology, and patient empowerment raises hope for solving the issues of healthcare equity in the United States.

We spoke about how the current healthcare system often leaves patients feeling disconnected and uninformed, biomarkers, the role of technology in democratizing health information, and the need for a paradigm shift from a clinician-centric to a patient-centric approach.
