Multidisciplinary Clinic
It takes a whole team to take on breast cancer: medical, surgical, radiation
oncologists and diagnostic radiologists. At Jupiter Medical Center, patients
have a chance to meet with all of these medical professionals at one time
for a faster, more coordinated care effort. Our team will be by your side
every step of the way, starting with your first group appointment. With
our multidisciplinary approach to breast cancer treatment, patients can
spend less time searching for options and more time getting better.
- Benefits of a multidisciplinary approach to treatment:
- Quicker treatment
- Reduced stress and anxiety
- Access to a full support system
- One team of specialists, collaborating under one roof
- Personalized treatment plan from diagnosis to recovery into survivorship
Whether you are seeking a second opinion, or preparing to start treatment,
we encourage patients to see our multidisciplinary team to learn about
their options. Coordinated scheduling allows patients to be seen within
days of diagnosis. Jupiter Medical Center will work with patients to determine
their coverage for such an evaluation. Costs can vary on a case-by-case basis.
Work with a Highly Trained Oncology Team
At Jupiter Medical Center, we have the only fellowship-trained breast surgeon
in northern Palm Beach County. In addition, our radiologists at the Margaret
W. Niedland Breast Center are fellowship-trained and board-certified subspecialists
in breast imaging. As a result of their training, our doctors have developed
cutting-edge techniques to detect the smallest of cancers, reducing unnecessary
biopsies and procedures and maximizing treatment while limiting side effects.
We tailor care to your individual situation by bringing together a team
of experienced professionals, advanced technologies, innovative treatment
options and a wide array of support services, to offer you the best possible outcome.
