It's time to go from confusion to clarity as we break down your medical diagnosis and medications into layman's terms!
About this Event

“Doc, You Said I Have WHAT? – Understanding Your Diagnosis in Plain English for Your 2026 Health Resolution” is a live session with Dr. Shirlet Fowler Oriakhi DNP RN where you’ll learn how to translate medical language into everyday language so you can finally:

  • Understand what your main diagnosis actually means (not just the fancy word)
  • Make sense of what some of your medications are doing
  • Know simple, realistic steps you can take to care for yourself better in 2026

We’ll focus on these common conditions:

  • High blood pressure
  • Type 2 diabetes
  • High cholesterol
  • Heart issues (heart failure” or “AFib”)

You’ll leave with a healthcare resolution that is more than “I’ll do better this year” and more like:


“I understand what’s going on with my body, and I know 1–3 things I can start doing this week.”
