How Avela works

When You Understand Your Options, Decisions Feel Lighter

Avela offers independent oncology guidance for patients and families who want a clearer view of what comes next. See how we help you get clarity.

STEP 01

Schedule and get started

Book directly on our website at a time that works for you. If you're unsure which service fits, start with a free introductory call to talk through your situation before committing.

No waiting months just to speak with an oncology expert.
STEP 02

Share your records

If you already have records, upload them through our secure online system. If they're available electronically, visits can often be scheduled within 72 hours.

If you don't have records, we can help request records with your authorization. This typically takes two to three weeks, depending on the facility.

No chasing down records or repeating your story from scratch.
STEP 03

Meet with your clinician

You'll have a video visit with your dedicated physician or nurse practitioner, who will have reviewed your case beforehand. This visit is a 60-minute video consultation with a review of diagnosis, staging, treatment options, and what to do next.

No more leaving appointments confused about what comes next.
STEP 04

Receive your written report

Following your visit, you'll receive a clear written report within 3–5 business days. It will include a structured summary, key findings (diagnosis, stage, prognosis), and treatment options as well as recommended steps.

No forgetting what was said. You have everything you need, in writing, to share with your care team.

Who we help

Avela supports patients and families at different points in the cancer journey.

  • Overwhelmed by a new diagnosis or treatment plan
  • Second-guessing the treatment options and next steps
  • Concerned about new findings or changes in scans/results
  • Feeling rushed by timelines and wanting clear guidance

Why patients choose Avela

Avela is independent by design. You’ll receive unbiased, unhurried guidance focused only on what you need. Our review is shaped by your case and the options worth discussing, not by institutional availability or incentives.

Your treating team remains at the center of your care, and we provide an additional layer of expert clarity to support your decisions.

Ready for a clearer second look?

If a second opinion would help you feel more confident and in control, we’ll guide you through a simple next step.

Most consults are scheduled within a few days once records are received.
