Danielle at The Mesothelioma Center has been a tremendous help to our family since my Dad’s diagnosis. She is very knowledgeable and responsive and always ready talk to me. She has helped with legal, medical, nutritional, patient care, and other advice. I wholeheartedly recommend Daniele and The Mesothelioma Center when dealing with a mesothelioma diagnosis and care.

Exceptional. Engaged in a 30min+ phone call full of me asking questions without giving the name/location of my aunt recently diagnosed. Extremely knowledgeable. Patient. Informative. Transparent with how funded. Provided specific resources to use when researching. You don’t see customer service like this anymore, or maybe ever. Highly recommend.

My son Carlos was diagnosed with this terrible and unknown disease a few months ago. Thank God we found this Mesothelioma Center along the way and Vanessa Blanco who has provided us with information on hospitals and doctors who have been of great help. I am very grateful to them.

Thanks to Dr. Smart and the Mesothelioma Center, I went from knowing nothing about this disease to knowing how it is contracted, what it does to the body, treatments available, etc in just three short weeks. I went from totally overwhelmed to having an understanding of what we were facing and were to go for treatment. I was not very nice the first time Dr. Smart called. I was in a hospital room watching my husband go through 2 surgeries in 4 days. A day later, a shipment of materials arrived from the Center. It was exactly what I needed to help us deal with this terrible disease. We still have a long way to go but I now know I have the support of the center to direct me to the resources we will need. I watched a webinar put on by The Mesothelioma Center. Three weeks ago, doctors where asking us what questions we had. We didn’t know enough to even come up with a question. Now, I am able to ask the questions that we need to have answered. We were directed to doctors who are experts in this field. These are doctors that we are very comfortable with handling my husband’s care. They are not the team of doctors we started with but the ones that are the best fit for us. We are so grateful to Dr. Smart and the Center. We have many things related to this illness that we have to take care of, such as nutrition and the financial aspects. I know I can turn to the Mesothelioma Center for guidance. Three weeks ago, I didn’t know this organization existed. Today, I don’t know how we would have moved forward without this support.
