Using digital technologies
to improve the emotional well-being of people living with cancer
CanSurround has created a digital health platform solely focused on reducing distress and enhancing well-being for people living with cancer. Founded by seasoned oncology and digital health experts, and grounded in the integrative health model for cancer care, CanSurround attends to the whole person—mind, body and spirit.
When you live with cancer, emotional distress is common, intense, destructive, and sadly—oftentimes needless. CanSurround’s self-managed emotional support system teaches you to work with stressful thoughts and guides you to decisions that promote personal growth and healing. We provide you and your loved ones with personalized information and confidential support specific to your individual cancer journey.
CanSurround is the 24/7, digital solution you use by yourself, to feel better. You deserve it.
