What Is The Mesothelioma Center?

We Are a Free Patient Advocacy & Support Organization, Helping Families for 20 Years

For more than two decades, over half of newly diagnosed mesothelioma patients have turned to us for help each year.

We are not a law firm, a hospital or a government agency. We are a team of Patient Advocates, including a registered nurse, a medical doctor, an oncology patient navigator, a VA-accredited claims agent, a hospice care director, a legal advisor and a military veteran. Our team helps patients and families find the right specialist, law firm and financial resources so you can take the next steps after a mesothelioma diagnosis.

Our services and help are free, regardless of whether you pursue a legal claim, and personalized for every family that reaches out. We accept no compensation from medical providers, hospitals or treatment centers.

"Contacting The Mesothelioma Center was a game-changer. The immediate assistance my parents received through speaking with a patient navigator and triage to a specialist for optimal care allowed them to regain control of their future."

Stephanie C. Daughter of a Mesothelioma Patient

"Because of you, my mother is going to be financially set once the settlements come in. Without your guidance, my father would probably have not gotten as far as he did and would have passed not knowing how my mother would be taken care of."

Starr G. Wife of a Mesothelioma Patient

"After a frantic call into Asbestos.com not knowing where to start, they calmly helped me put pieces together one at a time. Continued support along the way provides me with the comfort that we don't have to walk this line alone."
