Amy Sandhu's Profile

Real nameAmy Sandhu

LocationBinghamton, New York

About meAmy began gathering health expertise in her teens, volunteering with children with disabilities. Along with studying radiology and other health topics in college, she delivered respite care for families of children with disabilities; worked with geriatric and disabled patients, including people with Alzheimer's disease and dementia, in a residential setting; and provided one-on-one care for a stroke patient. Her interest in health took a different turn with the birth of her son, who has developmental delays, and she serves as his patient advocate. Her Web career includes experience as a master guide at ChaCha.com.
