FAQs - Integrative Oncology by REBOOT
Who do you work with?
Patients with a current cancer diagnosis who are presently established with an oncologist. We do not, will not, and cannot independently manage any cancer diagnosis.
Patients with a past cancer diagnosis who are interested in addressing side effects, heal their bodies after treatment, or improve their health to reduce risk of recurrence.
How do I prepare for a visit?
Cancer care is highly complex, and each case is different. Before your visit, we need to review your oncology records to provide you with the most appropriate care. Our front desk team will assist you in this when you schedule; however, you can help us by having access to the following documents from your last year of oncology care:
Recent oncology visit notes
Recent labwork results
Recent imaging results
Recent pathology results
Current medication list
Current supplement list
Current list of oncology care team providers
What should I expect during a visit?
An initial consultation must be scheduled to allow for a comprehensive integrative treatment plan to be developed.
The initial naturopathic oncology consultations will be a 60-90 minute visit to establish a foundational history of your cancer, history, treatments, care plan, and current presentation. Length and frequency of follow up visits will vary based on your needs + preference.
