#NETs Champions

This World NET Cancer day we kick off by thanking our greater NETs Community and all our #NETsChampions for making each day a little easier.

Who is a #NETsChampion ?

Anyone that has been a Champion in your life. While we champion for early diagnosis, these #NETsChampions are in the community making day to day living easier for those affected by NETs.

This year we know 15,000 Australians are living with NETs every day. We also work with so many health care professionals, carers and friends that we know our community is greater than this. For every patient there is an army of people working as a team in the back ground, a Doctor, nurse, family member, neighbour and loved ones that contribute to making the NETs journey more comfortable for all patients.

We want to shine the light on these #NETsChampions. The people who go above and beyond for our NET Community. We would like you to share their stories with us.

We have so many NETs patients that volunteer their time to advocate for newly diagnosed patients, drive awareness of NETs and support the greater NETs community by sharing their stories and being a shoulder to lean on.

Kate Wakelin

What can I say about this amazing lady that hasn’t already been said? Such a caring soul, always there if we need here, always has the right words to say. This lady is a true NETs champion in every sense of the word. Thank you Kate for your wise words, your empathy and for just being you.

Dr Viswanatha Madikera Ramaraju

Dr Vish for short and I stumbled across him in the small rural town of Monto in QLD. Dr Bish is the epitome of what a rural doctor should be. A couple of particular qualities is his enthusiasm to share knowledge with training medical students and another is his caring nature towards injections, explanations, pathology requests / reports. During these COVID times I am glad I found him.

Peter McMenamin

We first met Peter when he presented for us in front of the PBAC in 2016. As COVID hit in March, we put out a call to help an elderly gentleman on the Gold Coast with basic supplies such as toilet paper etc as his worried family was stuck in Melbourne. Peter responded immediately and not only delivered the needed supplies, but sat with him for hours and provided him with some much needed company that lifted his spirits beyond words. Peter you are a legend & selfless #NETsChampion.
