Neuroendocrine tumors are relatively rare and often require specialized therapy. At Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University, we have the expertise to treat your neuroendocrine cancer. As the only National Cancer Institute–designated Comprehensive Cancer Center in Georgia, Winship offers access to some of the highest-quality and most innovative care in the state.
About 12,000 people are diagnosed with neuroendocrine cancer in the U.S. each year, making the disease relatively rare. Because most of these cancers are very small and can take months or even years to trigger symptoms, neuroendocrine tumors require precise techniques to properly diagnose, and often specialized therapy to treat.
As with other rare diseases, experience is everything. Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University treats more patients with neuroendocrine tumors than any other cancer center in Georgia. That means we have the expertise to treat your neuroendocrine cancer.
The gastrointestinal cancer team at Winship is comprised of some of the top oncologists in the nation. We are experts in the diagnosis and treatment of neuroendocrine tumors and understand that every single patient is unique. We’ll analyze your neuroendocrine tumor down to the molecular level and recommend investigational treatments that aren’t available elsewhere whenever possible. Because your cancer is unique, your treatment plan should be, too.
The level of care that I’ve received is like none other. It’s phenomenal. All of the team is very attentive.
