How do I get to all these appointments?

This is one of the most common reasons people miss treatment, and one of the most fixable. Many centers have transportation programs, volunteer drivers, or reimbursement, and charities often fund it.

Tell your team before you miss one, not after. Some appointments can also be moved, grouped on the same day, or done closer to home, but only if we know it is a problem.

Written by two physicians. Checked against patient information from the US National Cancer Institute and Cancer Research UK.
