Diagnosed unexpectedly in 2007 with stage IV kidney cancer, Dave deBronkart partnered with his physicians in every way to beat the disease, and helped his cause by connecting with a top-notch patient community online. Today he is well. In 2008 he discovered the e-patient movement – “empowered, engaged, equipped, enabled” – and in 2009 he and his primary, Dr. Danny Sands, were among the founders of the Society for Participatory Medicine, which is about patients as active partners in health and care, welcomed by like-minded clinicians.
