What Do Folks Think About Having A Patient Advocate For Visits, Procedures? Especially When One Is First Diagnosed.
After my Oncologist visit and all the changes we made about issues I have pointed out for years, I got to thinking having a patient advocate, one who has MM for visits would be a good thing.
