At the centre

A long awaited diagnosis of Endometriosis brings with it an unexpected change from being treated as a patient to being treated as a disease. This sends Angela on a journey of investigation and enquiry. As she travels that journey, Angela questions the motivations and drivers behind research, and comes to the conclusion that, to improve the commissioning, quality and relevance of research, she must place herself, the patient, at the centre of the process though her own participation and engagement.
