Multidisciplinary Treatment and a Holistic Approach
Our exceptional cancer care program at Mary Washington Healthcare treats
more than the disease of cancer itself. Rather, we support each patient
as a unique individual and attend to their physical and emotional needs
during what can be a very trying time. Through holistic-focused treatment,
our oncologists make sure patients reap the benefits of emotional support
from a friendly, encouraging staff. Patients can count on comprehensive
cancer care where everything is located in one place, which equates to
less travel time and less stress.
We use the latest technology and strive to raise the clinical profile of
cancer programs wielded by a multispecialty team. Patients have appointments
with oncologists, surgeons, radiologists, and other pertinent medical
staff to ensure they get the best medical care. These physicians work
as a cohesive team to discuss patient cases, treatments, and make adjustments
to care over time. This approach ensures that we benefit from the collaboration
of experience and knowledge to come up with a plan of care that is best
for our patient. We also provide emotional support for the patients’
loved ones. This special program involves everyone the patient wishes,
from family members to close friends – even the beloved family pet.
Chemotherapy and Other Infusions
We provide comfortable, spacious areas where patients go to receive chemotherapy
or other necessary infusions. Our patients benefit from one-on-one care,
refreshments, television, comfortable chairs, and optional, complementary
therapies. We strive to make these hospital visits as comfortable and
relaxing as possible for our patients.
