Living Through Cancer And Beyond

A Dayton Physicians Network cancer survivorship visit is designed to address issues that result from your cancer and cancer treatments including the physical, emotional, spiritual, and practical concerns of living life after cancer.

The visit is an individualized “look back and look forward” at your cancer journey. You will be provided a review of your individual pathology, staging and treatment summary. You will gain an understanding where you were, what you went through and why, and importantly, where you go from here.
