What is Olistico?

Olistico is the care coaching resource created by Lanie Francis, MD, a seasoned oncologist with 20+ years of experience working with patients. Recognizing the communication and emotional disconnect in the cancer system, Dr. Francis works with clients to focus on unmet patient and caregiver needs - guiding them through the physical and emotional twists and turns. Her personal approach balances a vast knowledge of oncology with a sensitivity and clarity around communication - meeting people where they are.

Why Olistico?

Cancer is not just a physical ailment, but an all-encompassing life event that affects patients and their caregivers mentally, emotionally, and socially. Olistico embraces the clinical aspects of cancer and reaches beyond to address the unique personal experiences of patients and their caregivers. Olistico is here to humanize the cancer process through consultation, advocacy, and empowerment of patients and their caregivers.

As your personal medical advocate, Olistico’s private consultation services cover the management of physical side effects, emotional/psychological/social aspects, family communication, review of treatment plans, clinical trials, and access to medical and holistic resources.
