Lung Cancer

Lung cancer is a malignant tumor caused by excessive, uncontrollable growth of abnormal cells in the lungs.

Lung cancer can be a life-threatening disease because it often spreads before it is found. However, with sharper imaging and heightened awareness from both doctors and patients, lung cancer that is caught early is treatable.

Our team of cancer care physicians will work with you to diagnose and treat your lung cancer in a compassionate, caring setting. Treatment for lung cancer usually involves:

• surgery
• radiation
• chemotherapy
