Background

About Cindy Cathcart

Professional Experience:I have been a clinical nurse for over a decade. I served in both clinical and administrative capacities throughout my career and I hold a Master’s degree in nursing leadership. As a staff nurse, nurse leader, and quality improvement specialist, I led multidisciplinary teams in various academic medical settings throughout Boston, New York, and Ohio to provide high quality care to patients with cancer. I am also a board certified patient advocate and certified nutrition coach.Patient Experience:My role as a health care provider transitioned to patient when I was diagnosed with metastatic thyroid cancer during postpartum, following the birth of my daughter. My background in nursing helped me understand my diagnosis, ask the right questions, and make the right decisions for me and my family. I started The Cancer Team to help individuals, patients, and families receive the same support and resources to understand their options by creating a personalized program that suits their healing goals.How We Help (The Cancer Team):Disease is a part of our modern world. We are either preventing it, treating it, or recovering from it. In working with us, you will gain an understanding of your health and how to manage it, while also developing a long-term, personalized strategy for maintaining a sustainable, healthy lifestyle. We help you with navigation, nutrition, recovery, and detoxification - the primary elements that dictate disease or wellness in our current environment. We also help individuals, patients, and their families navigate their health care and fill gaps that our healthcare system is unable to.
