About Me

There's a lot of information to absorb after receiving a cancer diagnosis. "My goal is for patients to understand what we discuss, so they are comfortable with the care they will receive," says Christina E. Phillips, NP-C, a surgical oncology nurse practitioner with Sentara Surgery Specialists in Newport News. "I don't dole out information and send patients home. Instead, I am an advocate for them and a partner in their care."
