The RTCF Patient Support Program connects us with testicular cancer men who have been recently diagnosed, currently receiving treatment, or men navigating their way into survivorship.
Support is provided in a variety of ways:
Financial Grants
These grants help with health care costs, housing, food, transportation, lost wages, or other unexpected expenses that cancer patients face. To date, RTCF has supported men via $70,000+ in direct financial support.
Personalized Need-Based Support
The patient support program includes weekly phone calls, in person visits during treatment, meeting for breakfast or lunch, attending doctor’s appointments, and connecting men and their caregivers with survivors who have the shared experience of testicular cancer.
Being an extension of the multidisciplinary team of doctors, nurses, caregivers, friends, and family, is our way of supporting individual men in our community.
The opportunity to meet these men, has been our greatest achievement and honor.
If you know someone who has recently been diagnosed, is currently receiving treatment, or is attempting to navigate survivorship that could benefit from taking advantage of our patient support program, please give us a call or send us an email.
