If you are diagnosed with cancer, you will most likely have many questions. Resources about how to treat and live with cancer are everywhere, including reputable sources as well as potentially harmful misinformation. The best choice you can make for yourself when starting cancer treatment is to find a facility that uses the treatment guidelines provided by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network® (NCCN), indicating they meet the highest standards of care on many levels.
The National Comprehensive Cancer Network® (NCCN) is a not-for-profit alliance of 33 major cancer treatment and research centers, including the Mayo Clinic and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Together, these facilities provide a vast resource of best practice recommendations, patient and doctor resources, and continuing education for medical professionals. They are also committed to promoting access to equal cancer care and continuous improvement.
At Cochise Oncology, we are proud of our NCCN membership and what it represents for our patients and providers. We are a Cancer Center of Excellence and a Comprehensive Cancer Center. This NCCN membership means that at Cochise, you can expect to find:
Historically, access to the best-quality cancer treatments has been inequitable, with many people unable to benefit from the highest standards of care. NCCN facilities have programs in place to enhance access to treatment in their communities. We serve a diverse population and work hard to ensure equal access to care for all our patients regardless of socioeconomic or other factors.
