From Patient to Advocate: A Marketing Pro’s Personal Mission to Accelerate Patient Access to Genetic Testing | Caroline Yost

This is GENETICS FOR HEALTHCARE—a podcast dedicated to helping patients and caregivers advocate for precision medicine in treatment, survivorship, disease screening, and prevention. #geneticsforhealthcare

After her mother’s battle with breast cancer, Caroline became vigilant about early detection. But when her own diagnosis came, the real surprise wasn’t just the cancer, it was the genetic revelation that followed. A PMS2 mutation unlocked a hidden risk for multiple cancers, forcing Caroline to make life-altering decisions not just for herself, but for her entire family.

Now a fierce advocate, Caroline reveals how she turned fear into action, pushing for genetic testing to become standard care—and why so many doctors still overlook it. Her story is a wake-up call: knowledge isn’t just power—it’s survival.
