Assessment of major gaps from the perspective of patients, patient advocates and NET health care professionals.
Due to the increasing incidence and prevalence of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), there is a need to assess any gaps in awareness and care.

The survey consisted of 33–37 questions (depending on type of respondent) across four areas: information, care, treatments and research.
