At Naples Cancer Advisors, we offer patients a free, unbiased second opinion on cancer diagnoses.

Dr. MJ shares how our expert team provides objective, evidence-based recommendations tailored to each patient's needs.

Oral cancer as an often overlooked but serious concern. This disease can appear without warning. What looks like a minor sore or discomfort may signal something far more dangerous.

Our Executive Director, Lana Uhrig, has devoted much of her career to this issue. Her research focused on oral cancer prevention, and her background in oncology leadership brings strength to our mission.

We offer second opinions, precision oncology, clinical trial guidance, and financial navigation. Every service is offered at no cost to the patient.

Supporting cancer patients takes a village, and YogaCAN, hosted by the Cancer Alliance Network of SWFL was a beautiful example of just that! 💛

Our own Mandi Reid, APRN, served on the YogaCAN committee, and several NCA team members were onsite connecting with participants and sharing resources.

At NCA, we’re honored to work alongside fellow Southwest Florida-based organizations that share a commitment to supporting those impacted by cancer but with missions that serve patients in different ways. While the Cancer Alliance Network of SWFL focuses on wellness and supportive programs, Naples Cancer Advisors provides free second opinions, working directly with providers to help patients gain clarity and confidence in their care.

We’re grateful to be part of a community rich in resources and partnerships — coming together to support those facing cancer and their families across the region.

As cancer cases continue to rise across Florida, more patients are seeking second opinions — often traveling long distances just to gain clarity and confidence in their care.

A recent WGCU Public Media report highlights this growing need, underscoring why access to trusted expertise is more important than ever.

At Naples Cancer Advisors, our mission is to ensure patients in Southwest Florida can receive free second opinions, working directly with their providers to review recommendations and determine the best path forward, without added financial burden.

No patient should have to leave their community, or their support system, just to understand their options.
