What to Expect During an Integrated Cancer Symptom Management Appointment
If you’ve never had an integrative cancer symptom management session before, you might wonder what to expect during the appointment. A trained physician at James To, DMD will start off by asking you a series of questions to determine your physical, mental, and emotional well-being. From there, your physician will develop a treatment plan that’s individual to you and can include one or several forms of functional medicine such as acupuncture, yoga, music therapy, and CBT. Your progress will be evaluated during the course of treatment, with additional practices suggested based on your needs.
