Words can not express how grateful and thankful we are to the Mesothelioma Center and their employees. My fiancee who is a 46 year old United States Marine Corp Veteran was diagnosed with Epithelialoid Mesothelioma back on October 2, 2024. To say his diagnosis was a shock would be an understatement. I reached out to the center and reached a message back almost immediately by an amazing woman named Karen. She is there every step of the way with any questions or support that we need. Placing in count with our team has been a God send. Putting us in contact with Aaron and also with Curtis was nothing short of a miracle. Karen and Curtis will always respond to my text messages. We have attempted to go through Veteran Affairs, but we have gotten no help and no response or waiting to speak to someone and being in hold for hours. My fiancee has been fighting the VA for years, only to be given the run around. My fiancees primary job was 6093 Aircraft Metalsmith you would think that the VA would be the ones to give our Veterans the respect they have earned and deserve, however they give them nothing. Karen and her team have been there for us since we originally reached out. To the Families of Mesothelioma Patients and Mesothelioma Patients; I know the confusion, pain, dental,anger, guilt and sadness you are all facing. If you need someone to talk to, someone who cares about you and your life, seeking justice for all of you for what your diagnosis has done to you on all levels. Reach out to the Mesothelioma Center, we are our loved ones biggest advocate as well as our own reach out for help and support to this amazing group of people. The information they share is beyond helpful and something I was told by Curtis. No small amount of asbestos is too small. The changes your life from the first day of your exposure. If you worked your ass off or served your country and you have been diagnosed with Mesothelioma.. Call this center, and speak to someone who is only a text message away. Thank you Karen you have no idea the impact you have made to Dennis and I. Thank you for being there for us, for that you have already done and for what you continue to do. You are so appreciated

I have found Karen Selby at mesothelioma organization to be extremely helpful and supportive in helping me navigate treatment for my husband who has mesothelioma. She is a wealth of information and confirmed we were on the path to getting the right doctors. I highly recommend anyone with a friend or loved one with mesothelioma that they reach out to them. The information was on my doorstep in a day. Getting information from research is much better than googling for information. Highly recommend!

Aaron Munz is amazing and so helpful and knowledgeable in his work with Veterans and knowing the exposures. He is an amazing asset to The Mesothelioma Center.

I had a Veteran come in with a positive diagnosis of mesothelioma. This was confirmed through pathology. This may appear as a slam dunk with the VA, but nothing with the VA ever is. I made a call to The Mesothelioma Center and they walked me through the necessary steps to ensure I had the proper information to help my Veteran. When everything was completed, my Veteran was rated at 100% Permanent and Total. The claim was completed much more quickly because of the help and information provided by The Mesothelioma Center. If you are a Veteran, a Veteran Service Officer, or anyone with any asbestos related lung conditions, this should be your FIRST CALL!!!! This is the only thing The Mesothelioma Center handles. They are amazing!
