Your Breast Cancer Diagnosis
The region’s most experienced Cancer Center is here for you
If you’ve just found out you have breast cancer, you feel like your life is out of control. We want to help you get back that control. The first thing we want to tell you is that there is real hope. Breast cancer that’s detected early has an excellent survival and cure rate. Even when cancer has spread, there are many effective treatment options, with a better quality of life. Many women today are living with breast cancer as a chronic disease, like diabetes or heart disease.
At Lehigh Valley Hospital's Cancer Center, you'll find doctors who are experts in all three disciplines of breast cancer treatment -- surgical oncology, medical oncology and radiation oncology. Our doctors work together to make sure you get the benefits of the most current medical knowledge. And you'll benefit from our active involvement in research to find new treatments that extend life.
Superior cancer treatment matters. But so does how you’re treated as a person. We understand that breast cancer is not just about the cancer. It’s about who you are as a woman. We’re here to help with everything that affects your life when you’re being treated for a serious illness. You can expect to be treated with kindness, respect, compassion and understanding.
But don't take our word for it. Our patient satisfaction rating is in the top 1 percent nationwide.
