Our Team
The Mass General Cancer Center at Cooley Dickinson Hospital believes that while most cancer care can be provided in a community hospital setting like Cooley Dickinson Hospital, there are some types of cancer that require sub-specialized expertise. In this case, physicians at the Mass General Cancer Center at Cooley Dickinson Hospital coordinate care with their colleagues at the Mass General Cancer Center in Boston.
We provide compassionate, expert cancer care and cancer treatment with a multi-disciplinary approach. Our team, comprised of clinicians and providers from various specialties, care for patients with the latest treatments, addressing both their physical and emotional needs. From a person's diagnosis, recovery, long-term, and follow-up care, we are committed to supporting our patients and their families while we help them maintain their quality of life.
We stand by our patients throughout their cancer journey - ensuring that our patients feel confident that they are receiving the absolute best chance for their best outcome. It is incredibly important to us that our staff members understand this and strive to provide the compassion and emotional support our patients need. Due to the nature of the clinic, we provide high-touch, ongoing care and support to our patients, so there is a unique opportunity to make meaningful connections with patients through continuity of care.
