If you or a loved one has been recently diagnosed with cancer, you are likely experiencing strong emotions and may have many questions. This is probably one of the toughest challenges you will face, but you never have to go it alone. We are here to help you with every step.
To begin, we recommend you:
Surround yourself with a great team

Empower yourself with knowledge
Understanding the type of cancer you or someone you love has been diagnosed with is an important element in the treatment plan being as efficient and effective as possible. As you progress through treatment, your Green Bay Oncology experts will continue to be a valuable resource for information. In this early part of your journey, as you research on your own, it is important that you consult credible sources such as our cancer types section and nationally accredited organizations.
