Advances in medical science have resulted in many innovative and successful treatment options for multiple types of cancer. Finding the right team of doctors and the best therapy in the myriad of choices available is vital to a successful outcome. Hartmut Stecher, PhD can assist with that. This highly-acclaimed scientist and lecturer founded Cancer Treatment Navigator in Seattle to help patients connect with the best providers and medical solutions available for their cancer treatment.
Thanks to a better understanding of how cancer cells grow, medical science recognizes that not all patients respond the same to chemotherapy and other traditional treatments, even when their cancer type is seemingly identical. Dr. Stecher leads a team of dedicated scientists and researchers who use their considerable expertise to evaluate available cancer therapies based on precision medicine rather than a one-size-fits-all approach to cancer care.
The highly-skilled team at Cancer Treatment Navigator does not offer cancer treatment. Instead, they carefully evaluate medical records, coordinate and interpret genetic testing, and then provide treatment information to patients based on insights they obtain through these test results.
These experts have access to the most current data regarding immunotherapy, medications that target cancer cells, and new therapies under consideration in thousands of nationwide clinical trials. They’re also able to identify top oncologists throughout the United States that have expertise in treating a patient's specific cancer type.
Their commitment to their clients doesn’t stop with education regarding treatment options and referrals to skilled physicians. They offer ongoing support by monitoring a patient’s progress, attending oncologist appointments, explaining difficult-to-understand diagnoses, and answering questions from patients and their caregivers.
Unlike firms who see a client just once, the team at Cancer Treatment Navigator is dedicated to supporting patients throughout their journey as they navigate today’s complex landscape of cancer treatment.
