Episode notes
In this week's episode of #WhatTheHealthTech, Justine Abson, Head of Marketing is joined by Sarah Jane Downing, a remarkable survivor who turned adversity into strength in the aftermath of breast surgeon Ian Paterson's betrayal. Sarah took charge, creating a support group for Paterson's former private patients even before the court case began. This group became a haven for mutual support, shared experiences, and real-time updates on the unfolding legal proceedings. Now, nearly four years since Paterson's conviction, the group stands strong, continuing to be a source of empowerment and healing for its members. Join us as Sarah Jane recounts her personal journey, highlighting the importance of giving people a safe platform to speak up, share experiences, and feel heard.If you would like to get in touch with Sarah Jane, please connect via saraj9downing@gmail.com and LinkedIn ( ).
