Advisory Work
Advisory for healthcare, AI, pharma, medtech, and patient experience organizations.
Roi continues to work with healthcare, pharma, medtech, AI, and patient engagement organizations through advisory boards, patient-in-residence roles, mentoring, facilitation, and strategic input.
The expertise, not just the story.
Roi’s lived experience with invisible illness is not a narrative device. It is a fourteen-year body of work: patient-in-residence roles, advisory board positions, program design, research collaboration, and strategic input across some of Europe’s leading health organizations.
When Roi works with your organization, he brings both the clinical lens of a former paramedic and the patient lens of someone who has navigated a system that could not see him — and built six organizations because the one that was needed did not yet exist.
