Let's be honest, cancer is scary, daunting, uncertain, and complicated. But at the Sandra and Malcolm Berman Cancer Institute at GBMC, the compassionate and dedicated team of experts makes sure no cancer patient ever feels they are alone. They accompany patients on every step of their journey from diagnosis to recovery.

"Each patient's journey is very important and very different. At the Sandra and Malcolm Berman Cancer Institute, we consider each patient’s medical, emotional, and personal needs," Paul Celano, MD, FACP, FASCO, Herman and Walter Samuelson Medical Director of the Berman Cancer Institute, said. "We use a team approach to create the best possible treatment plan for you."

Cancer is nuanced and complicated, so GBMC brings together multiple perspectives to ensure each patient benefits from the combined expertise of the entire treatment team. These weekly meetings bring together nurses and therapists who treat patients every day, the social workers and counselors who provide emotional and practical support, and the oncologists and specialists who bring their focused clinical expertise to each challenge. Doctors also gain insights and knowledge of the full team on how to approach problems in new ways, with new techniques. The result is targeted solutions that take into account both the physical and emotional health of a patient as well as potential risks from specific therapy options.

GBMC’s experts are always in action to assess your progress, potential challenges, latest treatment methods, and your eligibility for clinical trials. We provide patients with a wide variety of cancer services: clinical trials, oncology support, radiology, a specialty pharmacy, and more.

"As a cancer patient, GBMC was my lifeline, transforming not just my health, but my entire lifestyle. GBMC saved my life and gave me a second chance," Beth Nardone said.

At GBMC we're more than just healthcare providers. We're your team. At GBMC we face cancer, together.
