Multidisciplinary care (MDC) is an integrated team approach to health care in which medical and other health care professionals collaboratively develop an individual treatment plan for each patient. MDC delivers the best possible treatment while empowering patients and helping them maintain their quality of life. MDC involves a range of specialists, including physicians, imaging technicians, nurses, nurse navigators, genetic counselors, social workers, physical therapists, nutritionists, pharmacists, and more.
