Summary

This phase II trial studies how well medical physics direct patient care works in improving patients' understanding of their cancer treatment. Providing direct physicist-patient interactions and answering patients' questions about their cancer treatment may help patients to understand the care and therefore reduce anxiety and distress during treatment.
