Phyllisa DeRoze, Patient Advocate

Phyllisa Deroze is a global diabetes patient advocate and Director of Research at dQ&A. She began blogging almost immediately after being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in 2011. A year later she founded Black Diabetic Info, a website dedicated to increasing awareness of cultural-competent diabetes information from around the African Diaspora. In 2019, after becoming extremely ill, she learned that she had been misdiagnosed with type 2 diabetes for eight years and was finally given the correct diagnosis — Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults, a form of type 1 diabetes. Considered one of the most prolific writers on the representation of diabetes in African American literature and popular culture, Phyllisa builds community through storytelling by drawing on a Ph.D. in English Literature from Pennsylvania State University, a ten-year career as a university professor, her Fulbright Scholar expertise, and her own experiences living with diabetes. In 2021, she returned home to South Florida with her husband and daughter after living abroad in the United Arab Emirates and Martinique for seven years. 

Her motto "Diagnosed Not Defeated" is an inspiration for all.
