Ian Shenk, APRN, is an advanced practice registered nurse who specializes in oncology at Intermountain Health's Cancer Center at LDS Hospital in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Ian believes good care starts with truly listening. He sees each patient as a whole person, not just a diagnosis.

Most of all, he wants his patients to know they are not facing their cancer journey alone.
