Many cancers have a greater than 90 percent cure rate when they are caught early. Our screening programs also include an educational component designed to help you reduce your cancer risk and promote the early detection of cancer.
Free cancer screenings are available to those who are eligible, including:

Treatment for breast and cervical cancers detected through the NJCEED program is covered through a special Medicaid waiver program.

Our cancer team meets regularly to plan and discuss each patient’s treatment and progress. The team includes medical and radiation oncologists, surgeons, pathologists, radiologists and specialists in reconstructive plastic surgery, along with cancer coordinators, social workers, genetic counselors, registered dietitians and physical therapists.
Cancer coordinators, who are specially trained to assist cancer patients, offer clinical and non-clinical support. Coordinators can support both physical and emotional needs through treatment and survivorship.
Support programs include ongoing distress screening/counseling and a physical rehabilitation program that can begin before treatment to improve outcomes. Support services also include nutrition counseling with a registered dietitian, and social workers who help patients navigate non-clinical needs. We also provide survivorship services to help each person achieve and maintain the best quality of life possible after treatment.
Access to new treatments and clinical trials are available with our cancer specialists who are actively involved in research and teaching.
