Communities
​
At Smart Patients, they have over 100 communities covering oncology, autoimmune diseases (like Sjögren’s and lupus), neurodegenerative diseases and their symptoms (like Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and dementia).

Kidney Cancer Conversations​
​
At Smart Patients, they believe patients are the most underutilized resource in healthcare.
They’ve watched patients become experts in their conditions — and see that their knowledge improves the care they receive.
