The increasing medicalization of our society requires an ethical reflection on the future of our healthcare system. It has to be different. It can be done differently. More positive, more humane and more resilient. Without fear, and full of confidence. If people are informed honestly, they will be better able to decide for themselves about their health. It's about customization. The role of governments and industry should be modest. Core values of ethically responsible care and science must always remain central.
In a world with a growing number of chronic diseases, a quick fix with just a pill is not a sustainable solution.
We need transformation, a different view on health, and a strong moral compass to become more resilient. Therefore Wendy Mittemeijer founded Medical Matters in 2015.
To build new bridges between industry, academia, healthcare & society. To contribute to a positive change. Interested in hearing my ideas and get inspired? Just connect with me and let's get started.
