As Georgia’s only National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center, Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University offers you access to some of the highest-quality and most innovative lung cancer care anywhere. Our clinicians and researchers are international leaders in lung cancer treatment and research.
Winship’s lung cancer program is dedicated to caring for you and your individual lung cancer, because, like people, no two lung cancers are alike. Your cancer is unique on a molecular level, and it should be treated that way. Our team of top-ranked specialists analyze and treat every single case of lung cancer individually and with investigational treatments whenever possible.
As international leaders in lung cancer treatment and research, cancer centers around the world look to us to determine standard-of-care therapies. Many of the drugs approved by the FDA in recent years to treat lung cancer have come out of clinical trials performed at Winship. This means our patients were some of the first to benefit from them. In 2019, the National Cancer Institute named Winship one of just four Specialized Programs of Research Excellence (SPORE) centers in the U.S. to receive funding for their focus on lung cancer research.
I loved, loved my team, my medical oncologist, my radiation oncologist, the nurses. I got to know everyone, the receptionist, everybody. It was a good team.
