A cancer diagnosis marks the beginning of a new and often overwhelming journey. From the moment you are diagnosed with breast or gynecologic cancer, your physical health, emotional well-being, and everyday life can all be affected.
But survivorship care is not something that should wait until after treatment ends. In fact, the best care starts at diagnosis and continues through treatment and beyond.
That is exactly what makes Fem Survivorship different.
We are the first and only national telemedicine survivorship program focused on breast and gynecologic cancer. Our approach brings expert, personalized care to you from the moment of diagnosis, through active treatment, and into long-term recovery.
Why Survivorship from the Start Matters
Cancer care is about more than chemotherapy, surgery, or radiation. It also includes managing the side effects, emotional challenges, and long-term health changes that can come with treatment. Survivorship care helps patients navigate fatigue, anxiety, sleep issues, menopausal symptoms, sexual health concerns, and much more.
Research shows that patients who are enrolled in survivorship programs feel more supported, experience fewer lingering symptoms, and are better prepared to move forward with their lives. Yet many survivors never receive this kind of care. And when they do, it often begins too late to make the biggest impact.
Fem Survivorship changes that by starting from day one.
Everything in One Place with No Travel Required
Fem Survivorship is completely telemedicine based. You can meet with specialists from the comfort of your home, no matter where you live. There are no long drives, no waiting rooms, and no need to piece together care on your own.
Each patient receives a personalized survivorship care plan along with access to services such as:
Mental health support and counseling
Menopausal and sexual health care
Nutrition and weight management
Sleep and fatigue care
Physical therapy and symptom management
Bone and heart health
Neurology and pain relief
When additional care is needed, we connect you with trusted telemedicine specialists to make sure everything is coordinated and convenient.
Survivorship, Reimagined
You should not have to manage everything alone. And you should not have to travel from one clinic to another to get the care you deserve.
Fem Survivorship brings everything together in one place, designed specifically for breast and gynecologic cancer survivors. Our program is convenient, compassionate, and tailored to support every part of your health — from diagnosis onward.
