We offer a range of cancer treatments including surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy. Our multidisciplinary team customizes treatment plans based on the type and stage of cancer to provide the best possible care.
What is chemotherapy, and how does it work?
Chemotherapy is a cancer treatment that uses drugs to kill or stop the growth of cancer cells. It can be given orally or through an intravenous (IV) line, depending on the type of cancer and the specific treatment plan.
