Other services include:

  • Weekly conferences, where a multi-disciplinary team of board-certified physicians and other medical staff review all aspects of a patient’s case including pathology, imaging studies, medical histories and more. The team then makes a treatment recommendation based on national guidelines but tailored, as needed, to the individual patient.  
  • Genetic testing, including telegenetics, and pre- and post-test counseling. In fact, the Phoebe Putney Cancer Center was one of only four oncology centers selected for a national telegenetics pilot in 2017.
  • A sick clinic for chemoradiation side effects, which provides immediate access to supportive therapies for patients experiencing treatment-related discomfort
  • In-house labs, pharmacy and infusion
