FEM Women’s Health Launches First-of-its-Kind Telemedicine Survivorship Program for Breast and Gynecologic Cancer Patients

Spread the love

United States, 26th Nov 2025FEM Women’s Health today announced the launch of the first telemedicine-based Comprehensive Survivorship Program designed specifically for women navigating life during and after breast and gynecologic cancer treatment. This groundbreaking model closes one of the most significant gaps in women’s oncology care: access to structured, long-term survivorship support.

More than 60% of breast and gynecologic cancer survivors do not receive a Survivorship Care Plan, leaving thousands of women without coordinated guidance once active treatment ends. FEM’s program changes that by delivering a coordinated survivorship experience through FEM’s integrated care network, combining in-house clinicians with vetted external specialists to ensure patients receive comprehensive support from home.

“Cancer survivorship should not be an afterthought,” said Sr. Stacy Henigsman, Chief Medical Officer of the Survivorship Program at FEM Women’s Health. “Women face complex physical, emotional, hormonal, and sexual health challenges after treatment. Our program provides a clear roadmap, specialized clinical oversight, and whole-person support—from diagnosis through lifelong recovery—all accessible through secure telemedicine.”

A New National Standard for Survivorship Care

FEM’s Survivorship Program is the first in the nation to integrate oncology-informed gynecologic care, mental health services, lifestyle coaching, integrative therapies, and sexual health support into a single, fully virtual model.

Core components include:

• Medical & Physical Support

Symptom and side-effect management; surveillance for recurrence; pelvic floor and physical therapy; treatment-related menopause care; and fertility counseling.

• Mental & Emotional Health

Virtual counseling for anxiety, depression, and PTSD; cognitive support; peer mentorship; and moderated support groups.

• Sexual Health & Intimacy

Management of low libido, vaginal dryness, pain with intimacy, and body image concerns—offered to individuals and couples.

• Lifestyle & Wellness Coaching

Nutrition guidance, weight management, exercise planning, smoking cessation, and personalized healthy-living strategies.

• Integrative & Complementary Therapies

Virtual access to acupuncture consults, massage therapy guidance, yoga, mindfulness practices, and stress-reduction modalities.

• Care Coordination & Education

Personalized Survivorship Care Plans, communication with oncology teams, and long-term education on self-monitoring and preventive care.

“Our goal is simple: to help survivors not only recover—but rebuild, thrive, and feel whole again,” said Dr. Steven Fein, CEO of FEM Women’s Health. “This program reflects years of listening to patients, collaborating with oncologists, and understanding the gaps that persist after treatment.”

Who the Program Serves

This program supports women from the moment of diagnosis through active treatment and long-term survivorship for breast and gynecologic cancers. It provides coordinated, whole-person care designed for women who experience::

  • Side effects during or after treatment for breast, ovarian, uterine, vaginal, vulvar, or cervical cancer
  • Fatigue, persistent hot flashes, sleep disturbances, or treatment-induced menopause
  • Sexual dysfunction, vaginal dryness, pelvic floor changes, or intimacy concerns
  • Bone loss, osteoporosis, or fracture risk related to cancer therapies
  • Psychological stress, long-term hormone suppression challenges, or recurrence anxiety

This virtual model allows survivors across Florida, and ultimately nationwide, to access expert survivorship care without travel, wait times, or fragmented follow-up.

A Transformational Shift in Women’s Cancer Care

With rising survivorship rates, oncologists increasingly emphasize the need for structured, long-term follow-up that extends beyond cancer treatment. FEM Women’s Health is positioned to set a new national standard by integrating specialized gynecology, lifestyle medicine, mental health, and whole-person recovery into a single survivorship pathway.

“This program represents the future of women’s oncology care,” added Dr. Stacy Henigsman. “It ensures that survivors are never left navigating the after-effects of cancer alone.”

Availability & Referral Information

FEM’s Survivorship Program is now accepting patients statewide. Referrals can be made directly by oncology teams, gynecologists, primary care providers, or through self-referrals from survivors.
