Mission
The Simonton Cancer Center's mission is to teach, enrich and improve the lives and health of cancer patients and their families through a specialized psycho-social oncology approach. This is a specific and refined process developed by radiation oncologist, O. Carl Simonton, M.D.. This approach assists in reducing the emotional and psychological distress of a serious illness by teaching tools and techniques that can improve overall health and immune function, thus increasing confidence, control and hopefulness for cancer patients. Our goal is to improve outcomes for cancer patients in their cancer treatment.
