We are in the process of creating a Cancer program that will help patients navigate treatments, surgery and recovery.
Our program provides support from a variety of professionals:
Surgeons
Radiologists
Medical Oncologists
Nursing
Nutrition
Support
We have a Tumor Board and participate in the Tumor Registry, which helps our patients have a better care plan for their unique needs.
Hematology/Oncology
Cancer can be medically treated by Hematology/Oncologists. Please visit our Physician Finder to see a complete list of physicians who provide these services in their offices and/or at LLUMC-Murrieta.
Radiation Oncology
Loma Linda University Department of Radiation Medicine is pleased to announce the opening of a new location at the Loma Linda University Medical Center – Murrieta Professional Office Building. Radiation therapy patients now have access to the world-class care that LLUMC provides right in their community.
The state-of-the-art equipment available to our specialists includes:
3D Conformal Radiation Therapy
Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT)
Image Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT)
CT Scanning and Simulation
Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT)
Respiratory Gating
It is our goal to make the referral process as seamless as possible and we will keep you informed of your patient’s progress through whichever method of communication you prefer.
Surgery
Cancer treatment often begins with a surgery. To find surgeons, visit our Find A Physician section on our website and look for General Surgery and/or surgical specialties that specify cancer surgery.
