Chemotherapy is the use of drugs to destroy cancer cells. The goal is to keep cancer cells from growing and dividing to make more cells. Chemo can kill cancer cells that have spread to parts of the body far away from the original tumor. Chemo is considered a systematic therapy, which means it may affect your entire body. Chemo medications attack rapidly growing cancer cells, but they can also affect healthy cells.
Our cancer physicians also specialize in hematology, which is the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the blood, bone marrow and lymphatic systems. Our hematology team strive to provide individualized care for patients, providing the right treatment for each person based on an accurate diagnosis and assessment of each individual’s needs.
