A cancer diagnosis changes your life. You may not feel like yourself due to treatments, which cause emotional and physical changes. Our staff has years of experience helping patients and families. We are here for you through diagnosis, treatment and beyond.
Our advocate assists patients and families during their time at the cancer center. We will share compliments and concerns with our staff and follow up promptly with you to be sure that your suggestions are dealt with in a timely and respectful manner.
Our volunteers bring solace, hope, and joy to the patients and families who come to the center. We have several different volunteer opportunities that cover a variety of interests.
The cancer center sponsors several symposia, lectures and research conferences that are open to the public. Our virtual tumor boards help doctors across South Texas discuss cancer diagnoses.
If I can help anyone, that’s my main goal. My doctors and the UT Health San Antonio MD Anderson Cancer Center have become like family. Michelle Sands, Soul Friend volunteer and cancer survivor
