Patient Assistance Resources

Providing Compassionate Help and Support for Cancer Patients

When you have cancer, you can’t fight it alone. You need guidance, help, support, assistance, counseling, information and people who listen and whom you can trust. At Astera Cancer Care, we’re not merely your cancer doctors; we’re your cancer care team. We are here to help and support you through your cancer journey in every way possible.

Caring and dedicated to helping meet the needs of New Jersey cancer patients.

As a cancer patient, you or your loved one will have many needs, and Astera Cancer Care understands them and actively helps address them. Our caring staffers are here to discuss your needs with you and assist you in getting them met.

We’ll let you know where you can find specific products, such as wigs or mastectomy bras, and connect with support groups, psychological counseling, nutrition guidance, transportation assistance, and other forms of help. This includes advocating for you in finding and qualifying for economic assistance.

You can also count on us to help you make informed decisions. Always feel free to ask any question, and expect us to work until it’s answered.
