Welcome to the DiagKNOWsis Family of Websites

In 2004, Trisha Torrey suffered a heinous and frightening cancer misdiagnosis.  Instead of filing lawsuits or blaming others, she founded DiagKNOWsis, this website which would help other patients learn how to empower themselves to make better informed and wiser choices about their medical care.

Today DiagKNOWsis has blossomed into a group of services which continue to provide assistance to patients, based on the feedback and lessons learned in these ensuing years.

Listed below are those Internet-based resources that are now part of the DiagKNOWsis family of patient empowerment activities:
