A Multidisciplinary Approach to Treating CancerThe Regional Cancer Center is committed to providing high quality ca

re for people with cancer. The Center offers all the services needed to effectively identify and treat cancer, including: state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment, surgery, medical oncology, neuro-oncology, radiation therapy, investigational trials, stereotactic radiosurgery (Gamma Knife), nursing care, counseling, nutritional support, discharge planning, outpatient services and hospice care.
Our

patients benefit from a team approach, where specially-trained professionals work together to map out the best course of treatment. Depending on the particular type of cancer and the circumstances surrounding the case, the patient's primary care physician may be assisted by a number of physicians from various disciplines, including pathologists, oncologists, neuro-oncologists, surgeons, hematologists, radiologists and radiation oncologists. These physicians, in turn, are supported by physicists, registered nurses, radiation therapists, pharmacy personnel, dietitians, counselors and licensed social workers.
The Regional Cancer Center spans across JFK Medical Center and Muhlenberg Regional Medical Center and is accredited by the American College of Surgeons. As the Cancer Center offers a comprehensive array services, the need for patients and their families to travel out of central New Jersey for state-of-the-art cancer treatment is eliminated. Patients and families can take comfort in knowing they will receive advanced technical treatments from caring experts close to home.
