I can’t think of a job any more meaningful than one that allows you to be there to support people who have been diagnosed with cancer and help as they navigate such a difficult time in life. To me, a strong patient-provider relationship is so essential. It’s also incredibly important for patients to be active participants in their care and I encourage this by keeping them educated and updated with as much information as possible. The best way to approach the treatment process is by feeling confident about the plan.
