Dr. Elizabeth Chabner Thompson learned early in her career that it sometimes takes a change in perspective to bring things into focus. An, MD, MPH, a radiation oncologist who trained at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and the Harvard Hospital Systems. After many years of working as a clinician, and after undergoing surgery herself, she realized that patients need to feel cared for, comfortable, and empowered, and they need to be treated in a way that preserves their dignity. She felt that while the surgeries and treatments for cancer and other conditions have rapidly evolved (and, in some cases, even been revolutionized), the recovery tools currently available to patients were designed decades ago, for the surgeries and treatments of the past and she founded BFFL (Best Friends for Life) in 2011 to help solve the problem.

BFFL Co (“Best Friends for Life”), is a company dedicated to the development and marketing of modern recovery products and services. Providing information, support and a wide range of products that help patients recover from surgery and other medical treatments in comfort and with dignity
