A Vivid Vision of Our Oncology Service Line

We are a comprehensive service line offering patients the medical, psychosocial, emotional and spiritual support needed throughout the continuum of cancer care. Dedication to exceptional patient safety and customer satisfaction is our goal.

Our team consists of dedicated professionals including physicians; certified oncology nurses; clinical pharmacists; certified nurse aides; case managers; dietitians; chaplains; physical, occupational, respiratory and radiation therapists; and numerous support staff. Our diverse team extends to home health practitioners, physicians’ office staff, pastoral care, education and pathology departments, hospice and Meek Blood Center.

Our standard of care is based on the philosophy of symptom management and pain control. We identify our oncology patients’ risks and benefits before, during and after their treatment. Our physicians provide current oncology treatments with up-to-date diagnostics, procedures and medications. Our staff provides quality patient care, patient and family education and skillful chemotherapy administration. Most importantly, our patients are treated with dignity and compassion from onset of diagnosis to remission or throughout end-of-life care.

Our team of professionals promotes the highest standards of oncology care. Because we are dedicated to excellence, our team remains proficient through study and research, enabling us to provide patient care that exemplifies continuous quality improvement.
