A place of hope and healing, The Oncology Center staff consists of dedicated professionals who are specially trained in oncology. They strive to make patients' experiences the best they can be. The physicians, clinical and support staff, and volunteers are genuinely interested in and concerned for their patients. They celebrate the recoveries and mourn the losses of their patients, much as a family would. Physicians and nurses who specialize in oncology, an oncology pharmacist, courteous support staff and dedicated volunteers comprise The Oncology Center team. They work together with patients, their families and their primary physicians to customize treatment and support each other in the fight against cancer.
Patients are referred to The Oncology Center after receiving a diagnosis of cancer by their primary care physicians or surgeons. A board certified physician, specializing in hematology, oncology or radiation oncology, will meet with each patient and their family to determine the best cancer treatment option for the individual's circumstances. Patients also have access to national clinical trials at The Oncology Center. This not only offers patients the option to receive hopeful, new cancer treatments, but also advances our understanding of this disease.
