Find an Oncologist
Find   an oncologist
When you're ready to start treating your lung cancer, the first step is finding an oncologist that you trust. Oncologists are doctors who treat and provide medical care for people with cancer. They can help give you a detailed understanding of your diagnosis, including the type, stage, and best treatment option. Keep in mind, finding an oncologist that's right for you may take some time, so it's a good idea to start your search right after diagnosis.

Considerations   FOR CHOOSING AN ONCOLOGIST

Location: Where does this oncologist practice? Are they close enough to make my visits convenient? If my preferred oncologist is further away, am I able to coordinate travel to their cancer center?

Communication: Would I be able to ask this oncologist questions, discuss concerns, and be honest?

Reputation: What do other people think about this oncologist or cancer center? Is there someone I could talk to about their experience? Do they receive positive feedback from patients?

Relationship: What do I need from my oncologist to create a good relationship? Do I need to meet with other oncologists to ensure this one is right for me?

The sooner you find an oncologist that's right for you, the sooner you can take action to stop your cancer from spreading. Find an oncologist near you or ask your doctor for a referral.
