Patient and Families

We care about you and your families


Being diagnosed with cancer can bring on a flood of feelings and concerns. Learning as much as possible about the disease and treatment options can seem overwhelming and confusing. However, as you make decisions and prepare for treatment, it will help to learn as much as possible about what you may experience.

Radiation, alone or in combination with other cancer treatments, can be used to successfully treat many different types of cancer. Modern technology allows radiation oncologists to treat tumors more powerfully and precisely while sparing much of the healthy tissue that surrounds the tumor.
