Cancer and blood disorders are a tragic episode in any family’s life, but seem especially so when the patient is a child or adolescent. Our caring team specializes in the technology, science, psychology, and spiritualism behind these trying events. We offer complete care in one convenient location, while providing you with access to consulting physicians and some of the top pediatric subspecialists in the area.
The fact that our services remain under one roof helps ensure efficient communication and continuity of care from diagnostic lab work through discharge. We offer both inpatient and outpatient services, with the main goal being the precise, compassionate care of your child.
In addition, you will have access to ancillary services and other pediatric subspecialties within CHRISTUS Children’s.
