Patients also receive support from our team of skilled nurses, psychosocial workers, dietitians and other healthcare professionals who have advanced education in caring for lung cancer patients.
Moffitt’s Thoracic Oncology Program provides the very best treatmentoptions available for lungcancer patients, but we’re striving for more. That is why we are actively working on research and special treatments called clinical trials for many of our patients. We believe this is the most effective way for many patients to receive the best care possible, and for all of us to contribute to the prevention and cure of lung cancer in the future.
