The Holyoke Medical Center Hematology/Oncology service works closely with physicians, patients, and families, as well as with other medical center departments and community agencies to provide a personal approach to caring. We are accredited by the American College of Surgeons.
We’re all different in the way we approach life, but when it comes to something like a cancer diagnosis, there is one thing that all patients have in common—wanting to know that when it comes to our care we are in the very best hands possible. The specialized services and programs offered by Holyoke Medical Center’s Oncology Department provide our patients with the assurance they want and deserve, delivering compassionate cancer treatment and care that is nationally recognized for quality.
As the first hospital in Western Massachusetts to successfully complete the National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers, our programs and services support the individual, with treatment, guidance, and support that exceed the national standards for cancer treatment and care. This includes our Patient Navigator Program, able to provide you with specific direction and support based on your medical and personal needs.
Holyoke Medical Center offers a Lung Cancer Screening Program; details can be found here.
This group meets generally every other month on Thursdays (see 2025 schedule below) from 4:30pm – 6pm. For more information and to RSVP, contact Nancy Price, RN, Oncology Nurse Navigator, at 413-534-2520.
