All chemotherapy treatments are conducted in our office under the careful supervision of a trained oncology professional.

Chemotherapy may be recommended when cancer has spread, or is likely to. In this type of therapy, patients are administered drugs at the highest tolerated dose. The combination of drugs is designed to kill cancer cells that cannot repair themselves as effectively as normal cells.
