Cancer Diagnosis

Comprehensive cancer care should not begin when a patient is diagnosed, and it should not end when a patient’s treatment has concluded. Instead, care must begin early in life, at the same time the risks of developing cancer begin. It ends only when patients with a history of cancer learn to live their lives with a focus on wellness.

CTRC is steadfastly committed to providing each patient with personalized, comprehensive and compassionate care. We treat the cancer, and care for the patient. Treating cancer is no longer about giving the same therapies to everyone with cancer. It’s about making sure that the treatments you get are for you and your particular cancer. At CTRC, our caring staff provide a full-spectrum of services including treatment, education, genetic counseling, and a focus on quality of life including physical therapy, nutritional counseling, exercise and life style counseling psychological support, controlling pain and side effects, and social support.

CTRC's unique integration of break-through research and state-of-the-art clinical care delivered through an on-site team of physicians, laboratory scientists and other medical professionals allows it to translate the latest research findings more efficiently and directly to patients.

Our scientists and physicians use the most sophisticated tools and technology, the most advanced therapies, and the widest range of treatments in medical oncology (chemotherapy), radiation oncology (radiotherapy), surgical oncology, diagnostic imaging, genetic testing and disease-specific care.
