Oncology Regional Care Advancement (ORCA) Symposium
Saturday, March 16, 2013
Please join us for our inaugural Oncology Regional Care Advancement (ORCA) Symposium. The goal of this conference is to provide in-depth guidance to providers to help patients navigate the often confusing world of cancer diagnosis and treatment. For certain cancers, early detection tips, advances in medical management, radiation and surgical treatment options and issues related to post cancer treatments will be reviewed. Cancer can be a devastating diagnosis, and by working together in the community, we can ensure the best patient-centered approach.
