At Avella, it is both our privilege and responsibility to help improve patient health. Because of this, we are featuring the story of one of our incredible patients.

As we all know, the journey through a serious disease is one for the patient, family, friends and medical team. This patient story video is intended to show you how this patient copes with her disease, leans on her family and friends for support, has built life-long relationships, and continues to be an ambassador for her disease and a pillar of strength for other patients.

Oncology Patient Video: What can truly be the impact of one person? You will see. Watch the story of Pat Elliott to see how her career in public relations and journalism set her up to be an ambassador and a leader in the Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) community. As a two-time cancer survivor, she has been a true example of strength and hope for those currently going through the disease. Watch the video to see how Pat has taken full advantage of the internet as a unique opportunity to reach out and start conversations with people whom she otherwise wouldn't be able to connect with on the disease. 

If you or a loved one is suffering through a disease, we hope this video shows there is support in the community around you. Other survivors and those going through the disease are there for you and your family. Also, your medical team and pharmacy staff are there to answer your medical questions and care for you and your loved ones during this time. If you have any questions and would like to speak to a member of Avella's clinical team, simply contact us.
