Partner spotlight: Mauro offers personalised and independent support for cancer patients
When someone is diagnosed with cancer, their life often changes in an instant. Uncertainty sets in, difficult decisions have to be made, and many questions often remain unanswered after a hospital visit. Within the standard healthcare system, there isn’t always the time or space to discuss these questions in detail. That’s where Mauro makes a difference.
As an independent provider of second opinions and personalised support for cancer patients, Mauro makes personalised cancer care possible and accessible. This is what makes Mauro the perfect partner for Private Health Services. We spoke to co-founder Diederik Visser about their unique approach.Peace of mind regarding care
“Many clients come to us because they seek clarity regarding their diagnosis or are unsure about their treatment options. Our specialists independently review the medical records and help identify the most suitable treatment options. In addition, they offer extra time and attention between hospital appointments, and at home if desired. This integrated approach sets Mauro apart and makes it valuable for clients who need peace of mind, clarity and personal attention during an intense period.”
"Especially during this difficult phase in life, we aim to provide our clients with excellent support.”
A client-centric approach
Mauro works with a team of experienced oncologists, medical specialists and lifestyle doctors. They combine their work at Mauro with an active role in a hospital or clinic. “The client’s wishes and needs are our top priority. This means that clients are matched with skilled, empathetic and open-minded doctors. The client is assigned a dedicated oncologist as a point of contact, who acts as a trusted medical advisor and responds to questions and requests within a day. Furthermore, Mauro’s specialists proactively get in touch in the event of changes to the medical situation. Transparency and shared decision-making are paramount.”
Lifestyle as an integral part
“Our team looks beyond standard treatments. Lifestyle intervention, for instance, is a big part of what we do. It is precisely during the course of a disease that nutrition, exercise and lifestyle can play a significant role in patients’ recovery and well-being.”
"Fortunately, there is an increasing focus on lifestyle in healthcare."
