American Oncology Network — Responsive Web Redesign for Dual Audiences
Role: Director of UX/UI (Lenz Marketing)
Client: American Oncology Network (AON)
Platform: Responsive Web
Scope: Dual-audience experience design, UX strategy, and brand alignment
Strategic Challenge
American Oncology Network (AON) is a nationwide alliance of physicians and healthcare leaders committed to supporting community oncology practices. With over 100 physicians across 17 states, their website needed to serve two very different primary audiences:
Oncologists seeking information on joining the network and accessing professional resources.
Patients seeking care, information, and support.
The existing site treated these audiences in a one-size-fits-all manner, leading to confusion, longer navigation times, and diluted brand impact. The challenge was to create a clear, differentiated journey for each audience while maintaining brand cohesion.
My Role & Leadership
Directed discovery workshops to map audience needs, goals, and pain points.
Led UX strategy to create separate user journeys tailored to oncologists and patients.
Oversaw responsive UI design that balanced empathy for patients with credibility for medical professionals.
Partnered with content and development teams to ensure accessibility, clarity, and brand alignment across all devices.
