As a leader in cancer research, Karmanos is able to offer patients access to innovative treatments and clinical trials that are often times not available anywhere else.
To offer hope and longer life to patients with all types of cancer, Karmanos offers the latest types of therapy through our clinical trials program. Through clinical trials, we are creating new knowledge about how therapies fight cancer and provide national leadership in testing these new therapies.
We understand that cancer is a complex disease that demands complex care. We provide each patient with a dynamic, carefully constructed treatment plan focused on their specific cancer and their unique needs.
We listen to you to design a plan that provides you with respect, compassionate care and is responsive to your emotional and practical concerns.
The Karmanos Cancer Institute's Spiritual Care Service provides spiritual support to you, your family members and friends. We are here to accompany you through your cancer journey by listening with compassion and providing a calming presence; having an open conversation with you about hope, fear or other emotions you may be feeling; offering prayers and blessings; and connecting you to your faith through our own staff and volunteers or by referring you to community resources.
We welcome calls anytime from patients and families, as well as from staff. No question or concern is too small. Some of the reasons you may want to call us include:
There is no fee for our services.
