The Seacoast Cancer Center:
Doing More for Cancer Patients.
The Seacoast Cancer Center at Wentworth-Douglass Hospital
is a recognized leader in the treatment of cancer. Equipped with the
latest technology, the Cancer Center offers the most advanced
treatments available, including Intensity Modulated Radiation
Therapy (IMRT). And as Dr. Asa Nixon explained, this new
technology increases the likelihood of curing cancer
patients.
“
IMRT allows us to deliver radiation therapy in a much
more focused and precise fashion. It allows us to more
effectively kill the cancer cells while minimizing
any unfavorable effects to the surrounding
healthy tissues.” As the first medical center in Northern New
England equipped with IMRT technology, patients benefit
from a level of experience not found at other hospitals
in the area—as
well as a unique level of care.
“ Patients are always telling me how great the therapists
are, how great the nurses are. They do a wonderful
job taking care of every person that walks through the door.
” The Seacoast Cancer Center is committed to providing
patients with the latest and most comprehensive treatments
and therapies available.
And for Dr. Nixon, the reason is quite simple.
“ My job is to cure cancer.”
