Schrader Family Cancer Center

We work together as a team — bringing together your surgeon, therapists and other providers to customize a complete cancer treatment plan. After your initial diagnosis, you’ll first meet with your oncologist. They’ll do a physical exam, review your medical history and study any imaging and lab reports.

Your treatment may include a combination of options, such as:

• Chemotherapy: Delivery of cancer-killing drugs through an IV or orally; usually given in rounds — before or after surgery — with a recovery period in between treatments
• Hormone therapy: Medication for treating cancers that rely on hormones to grow by blocking or reducing the hormones your body makes
• Radiation therapy: Uses high-powered X-rays, particles or radioactive seeds to damage the DNA of cancer cells, preventing them from growing or multiplying
• Targeted therapies: Specific drugs that target the cancer cells that work differently than standard chemo, often with less severe side effects

Along with conventional treatment tools, we also offer complementary therapies. These include nutrition support, mind-body physical therapy, pain management and spiritual support.

No matter what your specific cancer diagnosis may be, we’ll get you the resources you need for your treatment plan.
