Second Opinion
Cancer treatment deserves a second opinion. We’re here for you.
At Ackerman Cancer Center, there’s no maze to navigate. That’s why we make getting a second opinion so easy. In fact, we place a high priority on scheduling same and next-day appointments, so not only can we provide you the second opinion you deserve but we can do it as soon as you need it.
Our team is always ready to focus on your unique needs, delivering specialized care with urgency and understanding.
Ackerman Cancer Center brings together an expert care team, individualized treatment options and innovative technology in one practice.
We know cancer doesn’t come with a one-size-fits-all solution; so before you begin treatment, we design a customized care plan for your individual needs and diagnosis, presented alongside comparative plans so you can make an informed decision.
You can afford great cancer care, and we can help.
Our financial resources coordinators and oncology social workers are always available to help you navigate insurance coverage and cost planning.
