How Does Cancer Patient Navigation Work?
We are a team of Certified Cancer Patient Navigators
All appointments are private. The first consultation can take between 1-2 hours.
We are not a substitute for your healthcare team; we act as a partner to them by helping you remove barriers to care.
We'll talk about your diagnosis and any concerns you have.
We'll review your treatment plan with you and help identify and locate those resources you need that may interfere with receiving timely access to care.
