about scripps

Scripps Cancer CenterScripps Health is committed to combating cancer. That’s why we mo-bilized the collective resources of five hospital campuses, our affiliatedphysicians and a renowned research center to form the Scripps Cancer Center. These providers work collaboratively toward prevention, early detection and coordinated treatment. Scripps Cancer Center is one of only two Network Cancer Programs in California, as designated by the American College of Surgeons. The center’s multidisciplinary approach ensures a comprehensive treatment plan that pairs leading-edge tech-nology with an experienced, respectful care staff who are sensitive to the whole person and a range of healing approaches. Patients benefit from a collective array of cancer-specific personnel and services, as well as vigorous dialog between researchers and clinicians that brings the latest medical knowledge bedside. Throughout treatment, a patient’s care team members meet regularly in cancer conferences to keep up to date on that specific patient’s needs and progress. This collaborative approach ensures that the expertise of a number of medical professionals works concertedly todevelopanoptimal,individualizedcareplan.Implementationofthesecareoptionsbeginsinconversationwiththepatient:Whatarehisorhergoals, and how can we best proceed together?
