About PBC Companion
Just as many people with rare diseases and disorders such as primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) suffer from unmet medical needs, so too do they suffer from unmet informational needs on the web. People diagnosed with rare diseases and their families often search in vein for answers to their questions, or find news and perspectives that are written for doctors, researchers, and investors — but not for patients and caregivers.
PBC Companion is part of Haymarket Media’s Rare Disease Companion network of websites, which fills the wide informational gaps that exist for rare disease patient communities on the web. PBC Companion provides people who have the PBC diagnosis and their families with news, educational materials, and trustworthy insights that give them the answers and support that they are looking for.
The editorial team at PBC Companion:
- Publishes news and educational articles about the science, research, and therapeutic advancements for treating PBC in a style that patients and families can easily understand.
- Works directly with women who have direct knowledge and expertise about PBC, having experienced it firsthand, ensuring that our articles are accurate and appropriate for the PBC community.
- Tells powerful and exclusive stories about people who have persevered through the challenges and difficulties of PBC.
- Offers insights into the PBC patient journey and how others have navigated every facet of the PBC diagnosis.
