Reconocido centro de excelencia en cáncer de pulmón

Our lung nodule program, in affiliation with UCSF Fresno, is one of the largest programs in the nation focused on early diagnosis and speedy treatment of lung cancer. This program is the first of its kind in the Central Valley, and one of only a handful like it in the country. 

The program brings together a team of specialists that includes:

• Neumólogos

• Neumólogos intervencionistas

• Cirujanos torácicos

• Radiólogos

• Oncólogos especialistas en radioterapia

• Oncólogos clínicos

Our multidisciplinary approach provides you with optimal diagnosis and management of lung cancer at all stages. Your medical team meets often to diagnose, assess and design targeted customized treatment plans based on the specific characteristics of your cancer type. Los planes de tratamiento pueden incluir cirugía, CyberKnife, radiación y/o quimioterapia e inmunoterapia dirigida.  

Importantly, as a patient or family member, you also have access to a clinical navigator and our entire oncology support services team — specifically designed to help you throughout your journey.
