Who Is A Cancer Patient Advocate?

The mission of a cancer patient advocate is to empower the one affected by cancer – be they the patient themselves, their loved ones, or their caregiver. The advocate strives to blend their expertise with empathy to help you navigate the complex healthcare system, offer guidance & resources, and a comforting presence during times of uncertainty.

  • Advocate for your rights and care
  • Navigate treatment options and resources with ease and peace of mind
  • Receive emotional support and connection throughout your cancer journey

Navigate Your Path With I-SPIE Health’s Patient Advocate Service

Do you want to be a passive patient always, or maybe just an architect of one’s own recovery, healing? Our Patient Advocate service renders professional Healthcare Navigation to make this journey as seamless as possible. Compassionate care aligned with deep clinical experience combines with our medical billing assistance, insurance liaison services, and comprehensive care coordination to facilitate access to the tools you need. Drawing on fields like integrative oncology, contemplative medicine, nutrition, and breathwork, we’ll help you reconnect to your sense of purpose.

Importance Of Advocacy In Cancer Care

A cancer diagnosis does not have to put the brakes on your dreams, aspirations, and life! However, navigating this complex terrain can be challenging. While medical intervention focuses on disease management, our Patient Advocate service bridges the gap by addressing the emotional, mental, and lifestyle factors that are crucial to your well-being. Cancer coaching through our patient-centric and evidence-supported approach ensures that every aspect of your care is aligned with your personal goals. At its core lies the belief that you, as the patient, know what’s best for yourself, and our Health Advocate team is here to support your journey every step of the way.

A Personal Message

Management of cancer requires seeing the entire body as a whole – one that incorporates all aspects of one’s being – mind, body, spirit, family, community, environment. It requires the provider to know the person as a whole and work as a team with all who will support the patient as they traverse the cancer journey. By the same token, it requires the individual to accept their diagnosis as a wake-up call, a chance to see that a disease is more than a physical-chemical reaction. And that with the integration of the heart and mind, healing is possible. 

This is what the I-SPIE Health model is about. With empathetic support and attentive nurturing that is rooted in clinical and integrative oncology, rediscover your sense of purpose and what matters most to you right now, and pave the way for a new beginning.

  • Combines oncology, nutrition, and contemplative medicine.

Testimonials

What Others Have Said…

 

 

Madhavi was wonderful! I wish I had used this service a year ago. I learned more from her in a one-hour Zoom call than I have learned from my oncologist in the past 3 years. She is very caring and to the point. I have hope now.

I am still processing all that we shared yesterday and am so grateful to have had the time to talk with you and even more grateful to have found you! Thank you for listening without judgement and so compassionately voicing your thoughts and extensive knowledge – allopathic/holistic/spiritual. You have given me so much to consider.
