Meet Mimi, a patient advocate on Mutographs
Mimi McCord founded the charity now known as Heartburn Cancer UK following the death of her husband in 2002. He died aged 47, nine weeks after being diagnosed with oesophageal adenocarcinoma. Mimi is now a lay member of NICE and BSG guideline groups focusing on Barrett’s oesophagus and OAC, to improve diagnosis, treatment and management. Additionally she sits on an expert panel advising the DH on a public oesophago-gastric cancer awareness campaign.
Mimi works determinedly to raise awareness of the link, and risk factors, between heartburn, Barrett’s and OAC within the public domain and medical profession.
