Northwest Cancer Specialists strives to provide the best care for our cancer survivors. We recognize the complex needs after cancer treatment, and the importance of surveillance, prevention and education so you are the strongest advocate for your integrated care. Our new program focuses on education and a multidisciplinary approach of survivorship.

  • Cancer Treatment Survey - You are invited to participate in a research study conducted by researchers at Washington State University. The study investigates the relationship between psychosocial factors and breaks in cancer treatment.
  • Survivorship Registry - fill out your personal survivorship profile using our online registry so we can keep you informed of upcoming classes and events that are of interest to you.
  • The New Norm - a two-week educational series developed to meet the needs of patients who completed their surgical, radiation or chemotherapy treatments and are ready to return to their “normal”, pre-cancer life.
  • Group Zumba
