Episode Description

Hear from orthopedic hand surgeon, best-selling author, and social media educator Dr. Erin Nance to unpack misdiagnosis, medical mysteries, and the app she built to close the gap between patients and doctors: Takeaway MD.

From a viral glomus tumor story to the diagnostic blind spots around Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and MCAS, this episode is a masterclass in why "rare" doesn't always mean rare, it often just means rarely diagnosed.

Dr. Nance also opens up about medical gaslighting, fake accounts impersonating her online, and her billion-dollar vision for peer-to-peer patient support through Takeaway Connect.
