Revolutionizing Patient Comfort: The HeartSnug Story with Sara Dorbin and Lauren Orlik

Beyond Clinical Walls Podcast

What if the key to better patient care lies in a simple yet revolutionary garment? Meet Sarah Dorband and Lauren Orlick, the visionaries behind HeartSnug, on this week's Beyond Clinical Walls. Sarah opens up about her life with a complex heart defect and how traditional medical gowns made her feel vulnerable during exams. Lauren shares her insights on the broader implications of outdated medical attire for women and the LGBTQ+ community. Together, they shed light on the centuries-old stagnation in medical garment innovation and introduce HeartSnug—a sports bra with a front Velcro closure and elastic support designed to bring physical comfort and psychological security to patients.
Celebrate with us as HeartSnug takes a significant leap forward, being selected for a prestigious fem-tech cohort in Connecticut, a recognition of its groundbreaking potential. Discover how you can connect with this transformative product through their website, Amazon, and social media channels like Instagram and LinkedIn. Join Sarah, Lauren, and their dedicated team member, Lisa Humiston, as they relentlessly work to make HeartSnug available to all. This episode is more than a conversation; it's a testament to innovation in women's health and the incredible impact that thoughtful design can have on patient care.
