Choosing a Cancer Care Provider
Choosing a cancer care provider is an important decision. So is finding a good cancer care center. To help you with your decision, choose one approved by the Commission on Cancer or other groups that set the standards for quality of cancer care. The American Cancer Society
can help you find a good cancer care center near you.
Choosing Your Physician
According to the American Cancer Society, these steps can help you find the best physician for you.
- Start by asking the physician who diagnosed your cancer whom you should see next: a surgeon, oncologist, hematologist or other specialist.
- Get the names of experts who are experienced in the field.
- Interview physicians to find out who is best for you.
- Obtain a second opinion.
- Explore all your treatment options with your specialist.
More Cancer Care Treatment Tips
Consider seeking a support group of cancer survivors to help you by sharing experiences, pitfalls and what to expect from cancer care treatments. Often, cancer support groups can help people affected by cancer feel less alone and can improve their ability to cope with the uncertainties and challenges that cancer brings.
