Disrupting Healthcare: Patty Post's Vision for Checkable and Beyond

Guest Bio

Patty Post, a mother of three, often found herself in a recurring battle against strep throat that plagued her household. Amidst her busy life, Patty's children's repeated illnesses forced her to frequently clear her schedule and head to the doctor's office. Documenting these moments became unexpected for Patty, who never thought she'd be the parent photographing her children in their most vulnerable states at clinic visits.

One particularly trying week, all three of her children succumbed to the infection, prompting her to make her third visit in just seven days. The family's proximity to the local MinuteClinic did little to ease the frustration as they faced an arduous hour-long wait after school. Patty's experiences echo the challenges faced by many parents in balancing caregiving with the demands of daily life.
