What does it really mean to walk alongside someone through one of the hardest journeys of their life? In this episode of In Good Company, we sit down with Candi Jordan, a nurse practitioner at Oncology Hematology Associates with more than 24 years of experience caring for cancer patients.
From the moment of diagnosis through treatment, survivorship, and even end-of-life care, Candi approaches each patient with deep compassion and advocacy — treating them like family and ensuring they receive equitable, comprehensive support. She shares how oncology care has evolved, the crucial role nurse practitioners play in improving quality of life, and the innovations that are giving patients more hope than ever before. Whether you’re a healthcare professional, a caregiver, or someone navigating a cancer diagnosis, this conversation offers invaluable insight into the human side of medicine — and how trust, empathy, and advocacy can make all the difference.
