NFCR’s Cancer Patient Treatment Assistance

A cancer diagnosis comes with panic, confusion, uncertainty and many questions: what tests should be scheduled, what are the best treatment options, and are there clinical trials for a new therapy that are suitable to the patient’s cancer.

NFCR understands the patient’s frustrations and needs, and we provide assistance through the difficult time by linking a person in need with the Cancer Patient Treatment Assistance, where one may receive expert professional help from our oncologists.
