YOUR COLON CANCER CARE TEAM
Expert care for colon and rectal cancer.
Colon cancer care team
Our colon and rectal care team includes board-certified surgeons, specially trained nurses, registered dietitians and nurse navigators to help guide patients through treatment.
Because cancer is a complex disease, patients benefit from the collaboration of physicians and staff from many speciality areas, including:
- Colon and rectal cancer screening
- Nurse navigators
- Referrals to the Legacy Cancer Healing Center, genetics counseling and other support services.
- Clinical trials, tumor bank and other research studies
- Regular patient care conferences: Learn more about these sessions
