Patient Advisory Board

At EUFOREA, we believe that patient voices play a critical role in the advancement of care for patients living with:

  • Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps
  • Asthma
  • Allergic Rhinitis

Since its launch in 2017, the EUFOREA patient advisory board has served as a network for patients to share the physical, emotional, and even financial impact of their disease and its effect on their quality of life.

In the patient advisory board, patients discuss their unmet needs and suggestions for improvements in care, as well as suggestions for how to raise awareness at a political level. This includes discussing solutions for timely and affordable access to the latest treatments.
