Genetic Counseling
Our Cancer Risk Assessment and Genetic Counseling Program is available to advise individuals and families with a history of cancer about their increased risk.
Integrative Medicine
Our Graf Center for Integrative Medicine is located within our cancer center building. It offers acupuncture, meditation, massage therapy and Reiki, nutritional counseling, smoking cessation, yoga, and more to help minimize nausea, reduce pain, lower blood pressure, and relieve stress and anxiety.
TLC: Treatment Learning Course
Our web-based educational material offers an overview of what you can expect as a patient.
Palliative Medicine
Palliative medicine focuses on improving your quality of life from the time of diagnosis, throughout your treatment, and afterward. This is achieved by preventing and treating the symptoms and side effects of cancer and its therapy.
Nutritional Counseling
Our registered dietitian works in partnership with your care team to assess your diet, determine your needs, and set goals to follow a healthy diet.
Support Groups
Support groups and other services are available to help you address practical matters in your care and provide psychosocial support to you and your family before, during, and after your treatment.
Survivorship Care
After going through cancer treatment, cancer survivors have unique medical and psychosocial needs. We develop cancer survivorship care plans to help you and your care team address these issues.
