“When I heard about this assistance program I was thrilled. I had been waiting six months to travel to Toronto to see Dr Ezzat and because I have not worked since August 2024, this kind of support was a HUGE peace of mind. I was diagnosed with paraganglioma in 2012 and unfortunately was not fully aware of the bigger picture of this condition. The doctors in my city were also very unfamiliar. Being able to travel to see Dr Ezzat has given me hope I didn’t have before.”

“I just heard about this assistance program less than a month ago. I applied; listing various expenses incurred over the past year relating to PRRT in Toronto; as well as Ottawa. I was incredibly thankful when my application was approved in full. This reimbursement helps so very much financially. I cannot be more thankful.”
