The comprehensive approach. It makes so much more sense, why not use everything possible? I am currently undergoing immunotherapy with Libtayo. It might work alone, but why not use an adjuvant also? Moreover, I think you do not mention it (because the words "alternative health" have a stigma attached to them) but I get the sense that if there were various ways to help support and stimulate the immune system, or strengthen the body's health overall, you would be in favor of utilizing those as well.

Non-generic personalized approach to treatment. Inclusion of immunotherapy, alternate methods.
A general time and expense description.
You guys harassed me, failed to understand my concerns and respond to them accordingly, and showed how poorly your company is run. Thanks for that in advance of wasting my money with you!
I called and explained my situation and condition and was told you don't treat my condition ocular melanoma which is fine but I also asked about the mestatic portion of. The person said she'd ask your dr's about it and email me their feedback but I never received a response.
I never received an email or call, only an email to rate my "experience".
Could only see page 1. None that I could see were from patients who survived or had the procedure. Dissapointing when I have someone who really needs help
No one called me back with next steps for my fathers treatment.,
Poor explanation of the basics from the start, including medical insurance coverage or not.
I didn't really have a chance to receive any information my aunt passed away a few days later. I want to wish you luck and PLEASE DONT GIVE UP...THE CANCER TOOK OVER MY AUNTS BODY PLEASE FIGHT SO THAT ONE DAY SOMEONES family doesn't feel the hole that my family does I cry everyday and I'm pissed that CANCER won and I'm so happy that me and my family got to see her. So please don't give up and let this cancer tear up any more families.
In my case, this medical center acted in a very strange way. On their website, they state: "we hand-hold our patients from their first call to us". After I filed an inquiry I got an email back within 24 hours explaining me how they work and inviting me to send them my medical file, which I did after a couple of days. So far, so good. But after sending them my medical file, I did not hear anything anymore. So, after one month, I sent them a reminder, asking, if they were not interested in my case, to let me know this, so that I could go further in my search. But even after my reminder, no response at all.
I find this way of treating a patient looking for help, very strange and dissapointing andI think this way of acting does not correspond with what they are pretending on their website.
I asked specific questions about Datar liquid biopsies and was told someone would get back to me. No one has reached out.
My questions were all answered. The big question was how much does it cost. The cost of $40,000 to $120,000 was way way out of my budget. I live on social security and there is no way I could afford that. To bad,
I requested to communicate via email. That was not honored. I have little time to talk on the phone and I asked simple questions.
THEY NEVER CALLED ME BACK I HAVE TAKEN MY PROBLEM ELSEWHERE AND I HAVE RECEIVED THE HELP THAT I WAS INQUIRING ABOUT,
I WILL NOT CALL YOU AGAIN FOR HELP OR INFORMATION.
The mention of bio markers which is something I have never heard of.
Best if you can get a second opinion from your doctor who has experience with your cancer journey.
I haven't received any information, I've received an email confirmation that the inquiry was received but nothing else
It's incredibly screwed up that it's socially acceptable for medical to be so financially out of reach to the masses.
These people claim to be able to assist people and restore health, but they take months to create a personalized treatment. My sister is in a hospital dying and these doctors haven't told her the truth about her progression. Now she is refusing traditional treatment because they have her believing they can help her best. Hence, we are watching her die and refusing to try anything else that might help bring her some relief. Before you give them your $$$ do your research. I hope they are brave enough to post this honest review.
Pricing is ridiculous for sick people who need care. Only uber wealthy can participate. You should work harder to participate with insurance if your goal is to help people.
I was very impressed with the patient care team. All my questions were answered
* Envita Medical Centers attempted to help this customer through the Sitejabber Resolution Center, but the customer did not respond
I wish I would have saved myself 50k. I was told I would leave and feel 100%.
I don't.
The clinic is understaffed and works a short day Monday and a short day Friday. It felt like it was more important for the office staff to leave on time then it was for the patient to get the care they are supposed to receive. (at 6 to 8k + per week I think the patient should come first?) Envita needs to find more dedicated front office staff or pay them a full time salary, just throwing out ideas here.
Some of my protocol was forgotten by the doctor, as were some tests and I was told the reason for forgetting: "it's a staffing issue". So, there were no baselines on some of the tests. How can I tell if my test results are showing improvements if I don't have the baseline test?
The clinic is disorganized and seems like high staff turnover.
When we, as very sick patients, go into a clinic and pay thousands of dollars per week, one would think the clinics "NO PERFUME" policy would be enforced. When we complained, were told the staff didn't want to hurt the feelings of visitors of other patients by asking them to leave when they arrived in clouds of perfume. It was better in the staff's sight to shuffle extremely ill patients to other rooms and accommodate the perfume laden quests rather then the patients who were made physically ill from perfume chemicals.
I am a Lyme patient, STILL.
But the worst part of the story is to come. My daughter chose this clinic because she believed Envita could give her quality of life while fighting cancer. She did have previous conventional treatments.
After 4 weeks of treatment at Envita, she landed in the ER and stayed in the hospital for the good share of a month. The hospital stabilized her and sent her home. She died less then a month later.
Looking back, I don't believe Envita had a chance of saving her life. It's a tough call; take away the hope she might have or take 40k of a dying person's money or be honest?
Since the founder would not look me in the eye when I passed him in the hallway, I felt he knew she didn't have a chance to live on this protocol. But it's hindsight.
If I had to do this all over again, I would have her go to MD Anderson or Cancer Care Centers of America. At least at this large clinics they would have done proper testing and probably saved her from a life threatening infection and many blood transfusions. Maybe she would have had some quality of life.
Envita does have 'patient advocates', but I think there is only really 1. The person that we dealt with antagonized my daughter and upset her for no good reason. I finally had to step in and tell the person to do as my daughter asked and it would solve the question at hand.
All in all, it was a very expensive, non productive (especially if you call death of a family member non productive) frustrating 2 months that I wish we could take back and do over.

At the age of 19, I, Dr. Dino Prato, the founder of Envita, watched as a very close family member of mine passed away from cancer. I remember my family taking her anywhere and everywhere for help. Her cancer was in an advanced stage and the main recommendation for her prognosis was hospice. She found more help available in a few natural doctors than she did on the conventional side of medicine.
Nearly two decades later, I still wish every single day that I could treat her now with all the tools and technology that have been currently developed. On the day my aunt passed away and as my family gathered in prayer around her bed, something inside me knew that this experience would have an impact on my life forever, even though at the time I didn't really understand how. It is my personal belief, that God, in his magnificent plan for our lives, gives us the experiences we need and the tools to accomplish our missions in life. The name "Envita" means to save and protect life and that is exactly what each and every family member, person and loved one deserves.
