We offer our patients an integrated treatment approach that is individualized to each patient’s unique needs. We first start with a comprehensive assessment that examines all aspects of a patient’s medical history before a plan is developed. Our patients are encouraged to participate in their cancer care and work with us in designing the best course of treatment and desired results. The Oncology Center coordinates with a treatment team of physicians from prestigious medical institutions including UCLA, USC, Stanford and M.D. Anderson, all leaders in cancer care.
