When the journey to healing takes you far from home, a little guidance goes a long way.
Whether you’re a patient or a caregiver, traveling for medical care can feel overwhelming. There’s so much to think about — how to get there, where to stay, what to pack — and all of it lands on your plate at a time when life already feels uncertain.
Trying to manage the logistics of medical travel while also navigating a cancer diagnosis (or supporting someone who is) can be exhausting, confusing, and isolating.
And that’s exactly why this guide exists.
Traveling for Medical Treatments: A Guide for Cancer Patients, Other Medical Travelers, and their Caregivers is a free resource designed to walk you through the real-life challenges of traveling for medical care. It’s filled with tips and tools that make the whole process feel more manageable.

Hi, I'm Ysabelle – the CEO and Founder of Journeywell Patient Travel Solutions.
I’ve worked in the travel industry for more than 30 years–first at an airline, then in corporate travel and events. Now, I help cancer patients coordinate their travel and lodging by partnering with pharmaceutical and insurance companies.
Across every chapter of my career, I’ve helped people travel under tough medical circumstances—often with physical limitations and little time or patience for red tape.
My mission has always been the same: treat everyone with respect and plan every journey with compassion and care.
I know this guide won’t erase all the challenges. But it will help you feel more grounded, prepared, and informed along the way. With practical advice, checklists, and insights from people who’ve been there, you’ll feel more in control of the details, so you can focus on what really matters: healing, support, and peace of mind.
