Lung Cancer Treatment Centers
Have you been diagnosed with lung cancer? You are not alone. According to the National Cancer Institute one out of every 14 Americans will be diagnosed with lung cancer, or some kind of airway impacting cancer, in their life time. Smokers and non smokers alike are effected.
There are a lot of lung cancer centers that will treat your disease, but what sets the Cancer Treatment Centers of America apart, is our commitment to your whole person. We understand that your mental well-being and quality of life directly impacts your bodies ability to heal-- so we have adopted an integrated approach to medicine. That means in addition to the latest advances in lung cancer treatments, we offer complementary services such as pain management, nutrition therapy, naturopathic medicine, mind-body medicine, oncology rehabilitation, spiritual support, traditional counseling and ongoing survivorship support after your treatment is finished.
We also practice Patient Empowerment Medicine which encourages and enables you to take an active role in planning your individualized course of treatment. You will receive complete details on your diagnosis and all viable lung cancer treatment options, and will be included in all decision making. Our commitment to provide a healing environment makes a world of difference in your recovery. In a 2010 poll of our lung cancer patients, 97% reported that they would recommend our center to a friend or loved one.
In addition to our commitment to patient centered care, our lung cancer doctors are some of the finest, and our facilities feature some of the latest medical technology for lung cancer treatment. Depending on the stage of your cancer, we practice several minimally invasive Interventional Pulmonology techniques. Or if your cancer is more advanced, we offer surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. Some lung cancer cures involve a combination of these lung cancer treatments used together.
The first step is getting all the information you need. A call to one of our Oncology Information Specialists can identify the closest center to your location, answer insurance questions and give you additional information about specific treatments offered by the CTCA.
