Individualized Lung Cancer Treatment
At Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA), we believe in an individualized approach to lung cancer treatment. Your doctors will work with you to fully understand your unique medical conditions and lung cancer symptoms, as well as your needs, to develop a personalized, integrated treatment plan. Your integrative program for lung cancer treatment will include a powerful blend of advanced conventional treatments, along with supportive/complementary therapies.
You are at the center of everything we do. Whether you have been newly diagnosed with lung cancer or have received treatment at another facility, we believe that you deserve not only to have access to the most innovative and comprehensive treatment options, but also to have all the information you need to make decisions regarding your care.
At CTCA, we believe in the fundamental right of each patient to be educated and informed about the best options for lung cancer treatment. We encourage you and your family to participate and take an active role in every decision regarding your care and treatment.
CTCA is unique among cancer hospitals because of the strong environment of support and compassion that we create. We recognize that every lung cancer patient is different. A stage II lung cancer patient has needs which are different from a stage IV lung cancer patient, for example. We take the time to become familiar with you and caregiver’s concerns. We engage in open communication and treat each and every patient with the utmost respect and compassion. This is just part of what makes our lung cancer treatment program different.
All of your care is housed in one location. This fosters a healing environment of close collaboration. At CTCA, your surgical, medical and radiation oncologists share your medical records and plan your treatment with a team of nutritionists, naturopaths, mind-body therapists, spiritual support staff and physical therapists. More so, this care doesn’t stop once you’ve completed your lung cancer treatment at CTCA. Your team will help you develop a customized plan for personal care after your treatment, as well.
