The journey of Uro H Advisor in supporting bladder cancer patients
Bladder cancer patients in Italy are now benefiting from an innovative resource that helps them make informed decisions about their care. Developed by Associazione PaLiNUro, Uro H Advisor is a pioneering platform inspired by TripAdvisor, designed to guide patients in choosing the most suitable hospitals for their treatment.
Since its launch three years ago, Uro H Advisor has empowered patients by providing practical insights into hospitals with expertise in bladder cancer treatment. With over 450 patient reviews collected across Italy, the platform highlights hospitals’ performance and experience while offering valuable data such as the volume of bladder cancer surgeries and doctor profiles.
By carefully verifying each review, Associazione PaLiNUro ensures that Uro H Advisor is a trusted source of information, helping patients feel supported during a critical time in their lives. Importantly, the platform also serves as a feedback tool for healthcare providers to evaluate and enhance their care.
«We’re excited to see the reviews grow because each one helps one more patient to feel supported and informed. The more voices we collect, the stronger this tool becomes.
Eduardo Fiorini,, President of Associazione PaLiNUro
