Services
Hematology and Medical Oncology
Pediatric Hematology and Oncology
We care for children and teens in a space built for families. Your child has access to kid-friendly exam rooms, private infusion bays and steady support throughout treatment.
Infusion
IV treatments take place in a calm, comfortable setting. You can choose a private bay or shared space, and our on-site pharmacy prepares all medications for safe and timely care.
Radiation Oncology
Radiation therapy is used to kill cancer cells while helping protect nearby healthy tissue. We offer external beam or internal radiation depending on your needs.
Surgical Oncology
Our team performs gynecologic oncology procedures and select minor surgeries, including port placement or revision, on site. More complex surgeries take place at Sinai Hospital, an ACS Surgical Quality Partner.
Clinical Trials
Clinical trials may offer access to new therapies that are not yet widely available. Your care team explains when a study may be an option and what participation involves.
Cancer Screening and Imaging
Private exam rooms support evaluations and follow-up visits. Patients also have access to imaging across Sinai Hospital for screening, diagnosis and treatment planning.
Lab Services
On-site vitals, blood draws and lab testing help your care team monitor treatment, check bloodwork and make timely decisions.
Care Coordination and Navigation
Nurse navigators help with scheduling, records, referrals and insurance questions. You never have to manage treatment alone.
Genetic Counseling and Testing
Our genetic counselors review your personal and family history to assess cancer risk. Testing can guide prevention, early detection and personalized care.
Palliative and Integrative Care
We offer therapies that work with your treatment to ease symptoms, reduce stress and support daily well-being. These services are coordinated with your oncology team.
Survivorship
The Dr. Michael J. Schultz Cancer Survivorship Program offers follow-up care, guidance and resources after treatment. Nurse navigators help you stay connected and adjust to life beyond cancer.
