My wife was diagnosed with stage 4 bladder cancer. Mayo Clinic removed her bladder, vagina, uterus, ovaries and 18 lymph nodes. Difficult making decisions about next phase of treatments. We called Envita and they said we needed to pay up front for any consultations. We paid the $550 as requested. After paying the fee we thought best to "circle the wagons" and decide if this was the right right choice for us. We asked to regroup and have them refund the $500 fee for the consultation. Dania, our go to person did not respond to our voice mail or emails for 5 days. I called and spoke with the phone contact at Envita who said, "should be no problem to get your money back." Finally received a email from our "advocate", this is what Dania replied to us, " I will make sure to cancel the appointment. The initial consultation fee is non-refundable." Thank you for your love and concern. You clearly have our best interest at heart and are truly interested in people. (Sarcasm)
Don't consider this organization for post surgical cancer treatment. They are only interested in money and themselves. Check out city of hope or Anderson's but avoid this place. Not good.
Our family relocated to AZ so that a family member could receive treatment for esophageal cancer. When her health struggled, we were told that her treatment was "working" & that it was "normal." After 3 months of this roller coaster, we were told her CT scan showed a "37% reduction of the cancer," only to have her oncologist from home confirm that her cancer was in fact WORSE & SPREADING. Envita lied to us so that we would continue to give them money. Even if it meant dying away from home & loved ones.
We were glad to speak with Ms. Hess on Saturday morning and she helped clarify some of the early questions that we should ask and what tests we should seek to answer. We will approach the Canadian Cancer Society which has a Branch here in Victoria B.C.
Thanks.!
We were very impressed with how informative that Casey is! Personal phone call with great compassion and consideration! My husband and I were very pleased to talk to her and the information that she had sent us! Awesome
Very compassionate answers with a lot of empathy for my wife situation before calling me had investigated possible treatment or options for referrals.
Although we were trying most of the options suggested it was good to know that they had researched and took my concerns to heart. Thanks again for the heartfelt response.
This is typical false hope that is very expensive you expect people to take out loans or mortgage their house and future and this harms future generations of that family weather you save their life or not,not a good business model unless your extremely rich no thanks you keep catering to the wealthy and the rest of us will figure it out
Jonathan helped me think through some options for a family member. His input was invaluable. Thank you!
I have reached out to several options for treatment. I'm looking for something close to home (KC, MO) Right now I am keeping options open.
Casey Hess was a great listener and answered all my questions, and followed up with an email breakdown of services, costs, etc.
Since I live in California, we cant move to Arizona, so we dropped the idea. But the representative who called was very courteous
Answer: Jo, it all depends on more factors than just where that cancer is located. At our center, we personalize treatment based on an individual's genetic information, which can play many different factors. To learn more about our clinic please contact us at 1-866-830-4576 and a Patient Care Coordinator can help provide further insight.
Answer: Envita Medical Centers provides treatments that go beyond the realm of what standard insurance is willing to cover so we do not directly bill insurance for our care.
Answer: Unfortunately we do not provide telehealth services at Envita Medical Centers. You would need to be treated at our facility in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Answer: We are very sorry to hear that your sister is having a hard time with chemotherapy. Chemo can be extremely taxing on the body, especially if given at maximum therapeutic dose without first genetically targeting it to your sister's cancer needs. Which is why if chemotherapy is deemed necessary for a patients protocol we use a proprietary method called GTFC or Genetically Targeted Fractionated Chemotherapy.

Answer: We treat all cancer types and stages, including endometrial cancer.
Answer: We are aware of this research. We have been looking into developing new agents through our custom compounding pharmacy that harness the same mechanisms of action as the drug ErSO. It is pretty exciting work.
Answer: Fibromyalgia is an idiopathic diagnosis, meaning physicians don't exactly know what caused this collection of symptoms. At Envita we use advanced proprietary testing to identify underlying conditions that could be causing or exacerbating fibromyalgia symptoms. Treatment range can vary greatly depending on how severe your symptoms are. It is recommended you speak with a Patient Care Expert so they can learn more about your case, once they have a better idea of how severe your Fibromyalgia is, then they can give you an idea of what it might take to treat it.
Answer: CIPI could be a potential treatment for your sister but our physicians would need to do an in person assessment of your sister's state of disease before they could recommend CIPI for her.
