Why Healthcare Feels So Hard to Navigate

Modern healthcare delivers information—but rarely orientation.

You may be experiencing:

 ❌ Multiple specialists who don’t communicate with each other

❌ Test results that raise more questions than answers

❌ Treatment options explained without context

❌ A constant sense of urgency—even when it isn’t warranted

Patients are expected to connect the dots across systems, appointments, and opinions—often while sick, exhausted, or emotionally overwhelmed.

This is not a personal failure. This is a navigation problem.

Introducing the CLEAR™ Navigation Path

The CLEAR™ Navigation Path is a framework I created to replace confusion with clarity and overwhelm with confidence.

It reflects the real journey people move through when facing complex or serious health issues—whether newly diagnosed, in treatment, or navigating survivorship.

CLEAR™ stands for:

🔍 C — Clarify the Medical Landscape

Understand what is actually happening in your body.

This step focuses on:

• Making sense of diagnoses, test results, and medical language

• Separating what matters now from background noise

• Understanding which decisions are truly ahead—and which aren’t

Client experience:
“I finally understand what’s going on and what decisions are ahead.”

🧭 L — Lead the Care Strategy

Create direction in a fragmented system.

This step focuses on:

• Organizing care across multiple providers

• Understanding timing, sequencing, and trade-offs

• Avoiding unnecessary delays, duplication, or overwhelm

Client experience:
“There is a plan—and I know what I’m doing next.”

💪🏾 E — Empower Confident Decisions

Move from reaction to choice.

This step focuses on:

• Aligning decisions with medical evidence and personal values

• Reducing fear-based or rushed choices

• Feeling supported—without being told what to do

Client experience:
“I’m choosing—not reacting.”

🌱 A — Advance Recovery & Survivorship

Support doesn’t end when treatment does.

This step focuses on:

• Navigating the often-ignored transition after treatment

• Addressing energy, identity, fear of recurrence, and rebuilding health

• Moving from crisis mode to stability and strength

Client experience:
“I’m not lost after treatment—I’m supported.”

🛡️ R — Reinforce Long-Term Health & Self-Advocacy

Build skills that last a lifetime.

This step focuses on:

• Learning how to advocate independently over time

• Creating a long-term health and wellness roadmap

• Integrating prevention, quality-of-life planning, and legacy

Client experience:
“I know how to navigate healthcare going forward.”

Who This Is For

The CLEAR™ Navigation Path is designed for people who:

👉 Feel overwhelmed or confused by their medical situation

👉 Are seeing multiple providers without clear coordination

👉 Want to make informed, confident medical decisions

👉 Are transitioning out of active treatment and need guidance

👉 Want to become stronger self-advocates over time

You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit from clarity.

This is A Different Kind of Support

This service does not replace your doctors. Inasmuch as I am a licensed physician, I do not diagnose or treat in this line of work. 

Instead, I help you:

    ✅ Understand your care

    ✅ Ask better questions

    ✅ Make decisions with confidence

    ✅ Navigate the system with intention

The goal of medical navigation is clarity, confidence, and capability.

 My perspective is unique: I have always been passionate about empowering my patients to participate in their healthcare decisions by ensuring they understand their medical diagnoses and treatment plans.  I bring that same passion and purpose to advocacy and health literacy.

⭐️ The word Doctor comes from the Latin root word Docere which means "to teach".

I was motivated to pursue a 12-month training as a professional life coach in 2010, and I wrote an award-winning book for my patients titled "Dr. Eno's A-to-Z Guide to Thriving with Type 2 Diabetes" (2018). I also became a certified functional medicine practitioner through the Institute for Functional Medicine in 2019.

This unique combination enables me to bring deep expertise in evidence-based medicine while also recognizing the value of relevant complementary and integrative care.

Through my coaching lens, I help clients clarify their health and life goals and provide practical tools to achieve them.

Having been a patient, I can relate to the human side of illness on a deeper level—facing your mortality and the fears associated with that, the uncertainties about the future, and the decisions that need to be made in the moment.

⚡️Women over fifty often find themselves at the intersection of midlife physical, mental and emotional changes as well as complex medical symptoms that may be challenging to make sense of.

My mission is to lighten that load, reduce the overwhelm, keep you informed, and help you feel more in control and supported throughout your health journey, so that you can THRIVE well into your golden years. 🌟

Let's Stay Connected 🤝
