West Michigan Cancer Center Radiation & Surgical Specialties debuted a revamped website today at wmcc.org, featuring extensive new content to help patients diagnosed and treated for cancer.
“Hearing the words, ‘you have cancer’ is a life-changing moment and we want our patients to know that hope starts here,’ said Bridget VandenBussche, CPHRM, WMCC Executive Director. “We understand the uncertainty a cancer diagnosis can bring and pledge to provide every available resource to care for patients during and after their journey with the disease.”
The website features detailed information on gynecologic, radiation and surgical oncology services offered by WMCC as well as clinical research opportunities for patients who are interested in government and pharmaceutical/biotech-sponsored studies. Visitors to the site can easily locate information on their provider teams and learn about nutrition support, patient programming, counseling and wellness resources available to them. The section, ‘Ways to Give’ provides information on how to make a gift, monetary or in-kind, and under ‘Careers’, current employment opportunities with a link to apply is easily accessible.
