Chemotherapy
In addition to radiation therapy, IPMC Oncology also offers chemotherapy on-site. Chemotherapy is the use of oral or intravenous medications for the treatment of cancer anywhere in the body. The therapy is lead by a medical oncologist who prescribes the dose and delivered by chemotherapy nurses who administer the chemotherapy in a semi-private, comforting suite.
The Rittenhouse Hematology/Oncology Group provides comprehensive quality care and are experts in the diagnosis and treatment for patients with cancer and a variety of blood disorders. Whether providing IV Iron treatment or chemotherapy, the doctors are board certified in medical oncology, hematology, and internal medicine and thus are able to communicate with all of our patients, providing comfort in the most difficult of times.
