Nurse Navigator and Guardian Angel, don't know which title suits Karen Selby best. Right after we received the diagnosis Peritoneal Mesothelioma we immediately went on the internet and searched for information on this specific disease. There was plenty of information on Pleural Mesothelioma but not Peritoneal. Finding a specialist in a top hospital seemed hopeless. We even checked into each of the highest ranked Cancer Hospitals/Centers per US News and World Report Rankings. We didn't find even find Peritoneal Mesothelioma mentioned in their Websites. Finding Karen Selby was by pure accident. The call I made to Asbestos.com was to find out more information about this disease. Karen immediately tried to calm me by sharing information about my husband's form of Cancer and why we couldn't find information on the internet. She relayed to me statistically how rare his disease was and how few doctors/surgeons and hospitals in the country are trained and experienced; and that their hospitals/centers were equipped to address this Cancer. She shared the list of those doctors and hospitals and urged us to get in the system immediately. We vetted all the doctors on her list and their hospitals based on experience, training, location and philosophy. When we got down to two potential doctors we called each hospital or doctor to assess their responsiveness, knowledge and flexibility to be part of the "team" we were developing. That includes a local and very respected Oncologist/Hematologist and Urologist both in Virginia (1 1/2 hours away). Both Peritoneal Mesothelioma contenders were within 4-5 hours away in different directions. We registered at both facilities so we could cut through any red tape when it's time, per Karen Selby's direction. And we are going to have an appointment with one after the 4th chemo. The selected Doctor would have used the same protocol before the consult. Also, he could teleconference the first consult once the next CT is sent to him. He already had the prior medical records. Karen was the first one to let us know that our local Oncologist selected the appropriate protocol for this disease as did the specialist. She gave us the two things that we really needed, information and some semblance of CONTROL! She sent us the literature we needed (received one or two days after our initial call). She is knowledgeable, professional, sincerely caring, she knows the different chemo protocols and can answer our questions honestly and candidly. So you can see why we call her our guardian angel during this journey in which we are engaged. Thank you to Karen and Asbestos.com.

You become accustomed to putting your guard up, and not wanting to to trust especially when it comes to dealing with online help. When I signed up for this, I did not expect the level of care, that was provided to me and my family that Dr. Smart provided. She has really taken a devastating situation and turned it into something that is manageable, and has given us hope, in ways I didn't think possible.

Extremely communicative and helped my dad get an appointment with one of the top centers in Philadelphia. I'm so grateful for this center. They assisted with information to nutrition to legal help and assisting with scheduling appointments. Special thanks to Danielle!

They were able to help us find legal representation and charitable donations to support after the passing of my mother who had a 9 week battle with mesothelioma.

I was very grateful and appreciative for Dr. Smart from the Mesothelioma Center. She was very helpful to my husband and I. She educated and walked us through the steps and suggested ideas and questions to ask his doctors. She also provided me with a lot of information that I can read and educate myself regarding this illness. We need more people like Dr. Smart, that is very educated and you can tell that she enjoys the work that she does by the way she assisted my husband and I. We thank the Lord and we are grateful that we met Dr. Smart from the Mesothelioma Center.
