Dr. Ann Maria Hester’s passion is patient empowerment! For over two decades she has worked diligently to educate health care consumers on powerful, easy-to-understand methods to optimize their health (and their health care) and lower their medical bills. She is a syndicated columnist as part of the Price of Business Digital Network. Yes, patient empowerment is her theme! What else could it be? Few things in life are as motivating and satisfying as empowering people to live stronger, longer lives. Dr. Hester’s latest book, “Patient Empowerment 101: More than a book, it’s an adventure!” was published in November 2022. It is available thru Amazon and Barnes and Noble.
