Discussing nutritional and herbal supplement options
Providing post-treatment diet and nutrition survivorship education

Several of our dietitians have advanced degrees or are board-certified in oncology nutrition. We also participate in tumor board meetings (multidisciplinary clinics and our Survivor PLACE program), where doctors and other specialists discuss individualized care and support plans for patients being treated at the Cancer Institute.
