OUR PROGRAM AND SERVICES
1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime.
After a cancer diagnosis, it’s natural to have questions – lots of them. We encourage you to call us for a personal visit with one of our compassionate and licensed health professionals
You also can visit our online health library’s cancer center for the facts on different types of cancers, diagnostic tests, treatments and more.
Let's look at the services and resources available...
PATIENT NAVIGATION
The cancer treatment process can be confusing and overwhelming. Our specially trained patient navigators work closely with you to share information, interpret treatment plans and answer questions you and your family may have. They can also help connect you with other helpful resources.
We can help guide you through and around barriers in the complex cancer care system to help ensure timely diagnosis, treatment, and support. This is also critical to survival and early detection, and the medical community in the U.S. is seeing huge successes through patient navigation programs.
We want to help overcome the barriers of cost, fear, and misinformation surrounding the disease and its prevention.
