Patient's Rights

Battling lymphoma can be difficult - dealing with stubborn doctors and inflexible treatment centers can be even more difficult, or so it seems. Patients have certain rights as do the medical professionals.

Rather than posting our own list of rights, at this time this site lists pages where others list patient's rights. It all boils down to the fact that you can be in control of your treatment. With your doctor, caregivers, family, and friends becoming a team, one can work towards the goal of remission.

Organizations can often help - for a list of groups that may help please see the organizations page.
