American Academy of Hospice and Palliative Medicine - Palliative Doctors

PalliativeDoctors.org is the patient site of the American Academy of Hospice and Palliative Medicine (AAHPM). It is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. We are unable to provide medical guidance, however we do hope to provide as much information about hospice and palliative care as possible. If you have any comments, feedback, or additional information you would like to see on the site, please e-mail info@aahpm.org. We will not respond to medical questions and recommend you speak to your doctor about any specific medical concerns.

The American Academy of Hospice and Palliative Medicine (AAHPM) is a medical specialty society of doctors, nurses, and other health professionals who care for seriously ill patients and their families. The Academy’s goal is to promote excellence in the profession through education, research, advocacy, and other support for our members, and to expand patient access to hospice and palliative programs and the valuable services they provide.

We created PalliativeDoctors.org to reach out directly to patients and their families who might benefit from the specialized medical care our members provide.
