Neuro-Oncology Program

We’re experienced specialists working together to give the highest level of care for our patients.

Treatments

Treatments for brain and spinal cord tumors include:

  • Neurosurgery: Surgery is usually the first step, with the goal of removing as much of the tumor as possible while still maintaining neurological function.
  • Chemotherapy: This is one of the most common treatments for cancer. It uses anticancer drugs to interfere with the cancer cell’s ability to grow and reproduce.
  • Radiation therapy: We partner with Mayo Clinic Arizona in Scottsdale to offer state-of-the-art radiation therapy options.
  • Bone marrow transplantation
  • Supportive care
  • Clinical trials
