About
The Patient Experience Podcast was conceived by PRC Chief Client Officer John Cook in 2016 to help healthcare executives understand the importance of a patient’s overall experience in the patient and family setting. The market is competitive, and the providers must make a patient’s interaction a positive one. This podcast will present situations as well as solutions.
In each episode, John will share knowledge and experience through discussions and interviews. His career in healthcare has spanned close to 40 years. John is a graduate of The Walker College of Business at Appalachian State University with a BSBA in Healthcare Management and Marketing.
Find episodes here on the website and on podcast platforms. Contact John at jcook[at]prorecoveryinc.com.
