Cancer
touches the lives of families, friends, and neighbors like you. The consequences
of cancer happen in stages and we will be with you in every stage, with
every resource we can assemble. We call this a journey. A journey to prevail.
Hendrick Cancer Center
is determined to fight cancer. We resolve that all people in the Texas
Midwest have access to cutting edge cancer care. Our mission is to prevail
over cancer.
We will fight with
you and give you access to resources needed for you and your family to
cope. It takes a dedicated team to provide care at every stage of the
journey. Each member, from physicians to nurses, social workers to volunteers,
has a critical role. Our team has experience and specialized training
in Oncology. This team coordinates care for you to move throughout your
journey with assurance and understanding.
Cancer has enough
consequences. Leaving home to find world class cancer care will not be
one. Hendrick Cancer Center offers cancer care from prevention to treatment,
from support to rehabilitation: the cancer care that you deserve. By working
together as a team we can prevail over cancer.
