Building a Care Team When You Have Kidney Cancer

Kidney cancer is a unique diagnosis, and while general medical oncologists are a fantastic resource, it's still important to get care from those specifically experienced in treating kidney cancer, particularly if your cancer is advanced or a rare subtype of kidney cancer. In this video, some of the nation's leading kidney cancer specialists, along with patients and caregivers, discuss the things you might think about as you build a care team. At our Patient Resource Center at www.kidneycan.org, we have additional resources with kidney cancer basics and some in-depth information as well. We have printouts to take with you to doctor's appointments, along with Q&A resources and videos that explain kidney cancer.
