There's a trained professional whose entire job is guiding you through cancer treatment — and most patients never ask for one. Patient navigators coordinate appointments, explain resources, provide emotional and financial guidance, and advocate for you inside the medical system. Jennifer Omholt explains how to find one through your oncologist, cancer center, the American Cancer Society, or the Patient Advocate Foundation. From JUST DIAGNOSED: A Survivor's Guide to Navigating Cancer by Jennifer Omholt — journalist and 24-year stage 3 breast cancer survivor. Foreword by Debu Tripathy, MD (MD Anderson Cancer Center).
