Many books have been written about finding your true love. Yet, there’s not much guidance about finding the right doctors.
Lisa Weber
Lisa Weber lives in the suburbs of Tampa, Florida, where she works hard at being a wife and mother of two beautiful girls. She’s passionate about overcoming challenges while living with a rare autoimmune disease called scleroderma. This systemic disease attacks her entire body inside and out. Her diagnosis came in 2014, but she continues doing the things she loves: working as a client success manager, cooking (poorly), building furniture, and jogging (slowly). She will tell you everything she does is perfectly imperfect! One of her life goals is to help raise awareness for rare diseases and continue her personal fight to survive and thrive until a cure is found.
At Bionews we’re committed to providing the most accurate, relevant, and up-to-date reporting for our patient communities. Our goal is to ensure that everyone has access to disease-specific information that is both trustworthy and easy to understand. You can read more about our editorial policy here.
