Oncology Units
Our Medical Oncology Unit works with you from the moment you discover you have cancer. At WDH, cancer is treated by a multi-disciplinary team of oncologists combining their unique skills to create the best plan of treatment for you. The Infusion Unit features a wide expanse of windows with patient bays all surrounding a central nurses' station. An adjacent, small brick-walled garden is available for you and your family to enjoy. The Seacoast Cancer Center also includes private patient waiting areas, designated spaces for an oncology pharmacy, nutrition and social work services. Our Medical Oncology program is an affiliate in the National Cancer Institute's Cancer Trial Support Unit network, offering oncology patients access to clinical trials previously available only at major medical centers.
Our Radiation Oncology Unit offers state-of-the-art equipment and technologies. This means you can stay close to home during your course of treatment. We offer advanced treatments such as three-dimensional, conformal treatment planning, High Dose Rate Brachytherapy (HDR), Partial Breast Irradiation, Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT), Stereotactic RadioSurgery (SRS), and Stereotactic RadioTherapy (SRT) designed to spare healthy tissues while more-aggressively targeting cancerous tissues. All of these advanced therapies are provided in a comfortable setting staffed by specialists in the field.
