The Diagnosis and Treatment of Cancer and Blood Diseases is complex. The proper management of these diseases involves coordinated care from doctors, nurses, social workers and dieticians with expertise in various areas.

In this section GENERAL information about treatment options is provided about a variety of cancers and blood diseases. The choice of the BEST treatment for you (or your loved one) can only be determined by careful clinical examinations and discussions between you and your doctor. Since treatments differ by age and overall health of the patient, type of disease, status (stage) of disease, and numerous other factors, the following listing is meant only to provide basic options about treatments rather than to replace the important doctor-patient relationships.

The members of the Adult Stem Cell – Bone Marrow Transplant Program of Hackensack University Medical Center and the Northern New Jersey Cancer Center are available to discuss treatment options and review standard and research protocols with you and your family. For a consultation call (201) 996-5800 (for non-transplant appointments) or (201) 996-5849 (for transplant appointments)
