Peer Mentor Program
Peer Mentors are volunteers who are acoustic neuroma patients and caregivers that are willing to talk about their acoustic neuroma experience. They provide information, encouragement, and support to other acoustic neuroma patients via telephone, email and video chat. A list of peer mentors is provided in our free patient kit and is available in our member section. Please contact us to request a peer match today.
