A faster transition from diagnosis to treatment

The Breast Cancer Clinic at the West Michigan Cancer Center uses a unique multidisciplinary treatment approach, developed by a group of healthcare providers to reduce confusion and apprehension while speeding the transition from diagnosis to treatment.

When you choose to be treated here, a team of specialists begins discussing your treatment options as soon as your information arrives from your referring physician. This collaborative planning meeting allows the care team to share expertise and create a treatment recommendation. You have the advantage of not only a second opinion but third, fourth, or more, as a result of this team meeting.

After just one meeting with our team, you’ll leave with a comprehensive treatment plan that can be acted upon immediately.
