Kelly, a dysautonomia patient herself, aims to transform the care of patients with dysautonomia through the education of physicians, patients, and community leaders with the mission of speeding time to diagnosis, proper assessment, and treatment of patients in community-based clinics and hospital settings around the world. After realizing that medical professionals in her own community were lacking knowledge about dysautonomia, Kelly set out to create awareness and education on the community level. This is when The Dysautonomia Project was born. What started as a small vision in May of 2014, has now grown into a large mission to educate our community-based medical professionals and reduce diagnosis time from 6 years to just 15 minutes. Through the distribution of The Dysautonomia Project Book and participation in various community educational events, Kelly Freeman is changing how doctors approach autonomic disorders each and every day.
