Dr. Brita Lundberg, an infectious diseases specialist, and internist, has experienced from both sides how complicated the medical system can be. When she stepped away from her clinical practice to care for ailing family members, she discovered a huge need for advocacy. This has led her to advocate for patients with a range of serious illnesses including congestive heart failure, Parkinson’s, celiac disease, and Type 1 diabetes, among many other conditions.
A former Assistant Professor in the Infectious Diseases Division at Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta, Dr. Lundberg is passionate about helping clients navigate the medical world with better information and greater confidence. Her greatest satisfaction lies in helping people find their way through the medical maze so they have a better idea of what to expect and so they have a more complete understanding of their health situation and of the choices before them.
Dr. Lundberg is especially interested in diagnostic dilemmas and supporting clients as they decide among multiple treatment options. Lundberg Health Advocates is a member of the Massachusetts Coalition for Serious Illness Care, the National Association of Health Advocates and the Society To Improve Diagnosis in Medicine.
