Finding the Right Treatment
The hematologic cancer team at Lankenau Medical Center is dedicated to
providing every patient with personalized care. Each plan is customized
so that patients receive the most-advanced, least-invasive treatments
with the fewest side effects. As often as possible, our team
strives to preserve healthy tissue while destroying the cancer at its
point of origin and any cancer that has spread.
All treatment options are available and discussed with you and your
family and decisions are made in a partnership approach. When
considering treatments, our team will find the one that works for you.
Age, overall health, location of the cancer, extent of the disease, and
your tolerance for specific treatments are all important factors in
determining an individualized and accurate treatment plan.
