OUR DEPARTMENT
Welcome to Hematology/Oncology, a subspecialty within the Department of Medicine. We provide specialty care for patients with blood disorders and cancer. We are committed to providing you with compassionate care of the highest quality.
Our oncologists are fully board certified and have the training and experience to care for a wide range of conditions. We work in collaboration with other medical center experts, including surgeons and radiologists, as well as specially trained nurses, medical assistants and social workers.
Nurses in our department provide outpatient chemotherapy under the direction of an oncologist. Social workers are available to provide resource and referral information. We also offer support groups and special programs for cancer patients
Please feel free to ask us questions and discuss your concerns. We want you to be an active and informed member of your healthcare team.
HOW TO GET CARE
New patients are seen by referral from your primary care physician. After your first visit, or if you are receiving chemotherapy, you will be given a direct telephone line for advice.
Please always identify yourself as one of our patients when you call us or are seen in another department.
Be sure to visit the New Kaiser Permanente Website for additional information regarding appointments, prescriptions, health education classes and other health-related topics. You can also click on my department link above to receive additional health information.
