Mesothelioma
Mesothelioma is a rare cancer caused by exposure to asbestos particles and affects the lining of the lungs, heart, and abdomen. Asbestos is commonly found in older homes in insulation, pipe coverings, and wire coverings. It can be released into the air when these materials are disturbed or not recycled properly. We specialize in connecting patients with doctors and treatment options that are best suited for them. Our information services and resources are 100% free to patients and family members.
