The Unpaved Path: From Physiotherapist to Endometriosis Patient with Emma Jack
Imagine suffering for 25 years, being bounced between specialists, misdiagnosed, and dismissed, only to finally receive a diagnosis that explains decades of pain, fatigue, and frustration. That’s the story of Emma Jack, a sport and orthopedic physiotherapist from London, Ontario, who opens up about her journey with endometriosis in this powerful episode.
Emma shares the raw reality of living with undiagnosed endometriosis—from her early symptoms at age 12, the countless medical appointments, and ineffective treatments, to the deep emotional toll of feeling unheard. But her story is also one of resilience, determination, and hope. With her background in healthcare and a relentless drive to advocate for herself, Emma fought through a broken system to get the care she needed, ultimately finding relief and reclaiming her life.
Join us as we dive into Emma’s transformative experience, her battle against medical gaslighting, and her insights on the crucial need for better awareness and access to excision surgery. If you’ve ever felt dismissed or silenced in your healthcare journey, this episode is a must-listen. Emma’s story is a testament to the power of self-advocacy, the importance of sharing our stories, and the hope that comes from finding the right care.
