Nutrition

When you have cancer, your body needs proper nutrients and calories to recover from treatment. Yet, eating well can be difficult when you feel nauseous or don’t have the energy to cook. That’s where a nutritionist can help.

ECHO is pleased to have Param Panchal on our team. He is a clinical nutritionist who educates patients and families, monitors patient nutrition, and supports healthy eating through-out and post treatment. 

Param is available to meet with patient when they are in the office and plays a key role on your cancer care team. He can be reached at (860) 886-8362, ext. 242.
