After you receive a diagnosis of cancer from your medical doctor or surgeon,
you are referred to the physicians at the Heptner Cancer Center, where
you collaborate with other health professionals to develop an individualized
treatment plan.
The type of cancer, the stage it is in, and the patient's physical condition
are all considered when developing a treatment plan. We also offer infusion
therapies/treatment in the
Infusion Center, which offers IV antibiotics, hydration, Remicade infusions, iron deficiency
therapy, and many others.

you. CCH takes a team approach and offers patients access to specially
