You-Finished-Treatment-Now What

You Finished Treatment, Now What? A Field Guide for Cancer Survivors by Dr. Amy Rothberg is a roadmap for lifestyle and natural medicine approaches to address health challenges that persist after cancer care, and to reduce the risk of recurrence.

Dr Rothenberg wrote this guide for cancer survivors and those on their support and care team.

You Finished Treatment, highlights the evidence for an integrative approach to healing that Dr. Rothenberg has used for over 37 years practicing as a licensed naturopathic doctor.

She is also a breast and ovarian cancer survivor/thriver herself. She wrote this book to make sense of an overwhelming topic, in a user-friendly, accessible way, providing both actionable information and inspiration.

As a survivor/thriver of both ovarian cancer and breast cancer she speaks both from the physician’s and the patient’s point of view with heart, levity and solid, practical advice.

When diagnosed with cancer in 2014, Dr. Rothenberg sought and received state-of-the-art care at a renowned teaching hospital and had her own naturopathic medical team to help her best handle treatment, and rebound afterward.

Her writing is evidence-informed, while also bringing her personal experience as a doctor, patient, wife, mother, sister, and friend. Offering a natural, integrative medicine perspective on items in the news, find Dr.

This is an example of the principles employed in Dr. Chilkov’s OutSmart Cancer® System which is an integrative approach to combining the best of modern oncology with the best of research informed modern and traditional naturopathic systems of medicine for the very best outcomes.

This approach allows patients to have not only a plan for their disease, but also a plan to support their health during and after treatment and to support recovery, restoration and rejuvenation in support of both healthspan and lifespan.

Dr. Rothenberg’s both personal experiences and medical expertise combine to form a heartful and pragmatic approach with clear guidelines and recommendations. This book is a wonderful resource for both patients and families as well as care providers.
