WILLIAMSBURG, Va., March 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ --Virginia Entrepreneur and CEO of Snow Companies Brenda Snow is proud to announce the release of her upcoming book, Diagnosed: The Essential Guide to Navigating the Patient's Journey (Amplify Publishing, March 2025). Filled with Snow's own experiences as a patient that ultimately led her to found the first patient engagement company in health, this book is poised to be a lifeline for those newly diagnosed with or caretakers of people struggling with chronic illness.

Snow's personal story is nothing short of inspirational. After being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS), she faced the common challenges of all new patients: discovering a true diagnosis, finding the right medical professionals to partner with, managing a career and parenthood with illness, and navigating the complexities of our healthcare system.

Snow eventually turned her frustration with healthcare into action, founding Snow Companies—a first-of-its kind agency that bridges the gap between pharmaceutical companies and the patients they serve.

Diagnosed, as Snow describes it, is the guidebook she wished she had when she first discovered her illness. "Receiving a life-changing diagnosis is overwhelming, but patients shouldn't have to go through it alone," says Snow. "My hope is that this book empowers others to take control of their healthcare journey."
