Patient Education
The Regional
Cancer Center offers free monthly workshops that are
designed to educate patients and their loved ones about specific
cancer diagnoses, treatments, symptom management, etc. As all
cancers are not created equal, these workshops are an
opportunity to gain new information and details that should be
helpful when discussing treatment options with one’s physician.
Each workshop will allow ample time for questions, answers and
discussion.Although
workshops are free, seating is limited and reservations are
required by calling 239-335-7595.
