Our Mission: Simply, We See the Need to Do More

The diagnosis of a pituitary tumor and/or an endocrine disorder is often a frightening, life altering experience that can affect many aspects of one’s quality of life.

We are sponsoring a free support group that will meet every other month in the John Wayne Cancer Institute in Santa Monica, CA. 

We strive to provide education, support and empowerment for those dealing with the challenges of a brain tumor. We believe through our speakers, our volunteers and our passion to help make a difference, we can serve as a useful and needed resource for patients to help improve their quality of life.

Our medical professionals and volunteers will provide current and accurate information about pituitary health, along with emotional guidance and support.

We aim to empower those who have been affected by pituitary disorders through information, clinical resources, and through our own experiences.

With the right tools and a willingness to seek help, we believe it possible to have a satisfying and productive life while dealing with a pituitary condition. 

The Patient Support Group is for patients, their families and friends. Under the direction of Daniel F. Kelly, M.D. and patient advocate Sharmyn McGraw, our group will meet three times a year.

We look forward to the opportunity to combine efforts with you and your family in your healthy recovery.
