As Georgia's NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center, we are at the forefront of cancer innovation and discovery. Our research is improving how cancer is prevented, detected, diagnosed, treated and survived, and providing hope for families affected by cancer.
It would be great for every patient to see their cancer care team as a partnership with you, not as somebody who is treating you just because you’re sick.
It’s important for patients to view their cancer care team as partners to make sure they feel supported and informed when they make decisions about next steps.
I’m just enjoying every milestone as I’m getting better and better, and stronger and stronger.
At Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University, we understand that cancer is a burden on patients and their loved ones. We want to ease that burden as much as possible. If you have been diagnosed with cancer, we are here to support you at every step.
Winship Cancer Institute at Emory Midtown is designed to deliver a unique model of cancer care that places patients at the center of specialized care communities bridging outpatient and inpatient care and integrating groundbreaking research into preventions and treatments.
At Winship, we were always a step ahead of the cancer. That’s the difference.
Through the entire process, it felt like I had a team rooting for me to win — versus just going through procedures and going through the motions.
Anna Bausum, ND, FABNO, a naturopathic oncologist at Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University, shares how integrative oncology helps reduce side effects of conventional cancer treatments to improve outcomes. She says, "Hearing people come back and say they now are able to walk, talk, go to work, perform their chores at home more effectively—that’s what gives me hope."
Start a team and take part in the 15th annual Winship 5K Run/Walk on Oct. 4. Every step brings us closer to advances in treatments that are helping patients with cancer live longer, healthier lives.
