What is UCSF PeerTalk?
PeerTalk connects patients with trained Peer Mentors, fellow patients with firsthand experience of cancer care at UCSF. Peer Mentors offer practical advice, emotional support, and a listening ear to others facing a similar diagnosis.
What can I talk to a Mentor about?
Whatever’s on your mind – the treatment experience, managing daily life, navigating UCSF, or what the road ahead looks like. Mentors don’t give medical advice – they share their experiences as someone who’s been through it.
“Helping one person may not change the world, but it can change the world for one person.”
