Find out More about Cancer and the Services We Provide

Cancer is second only to heart disease as a cause of death in the United States, with 1.3 million new cases diagnosed in 2003. Indeed, one of three Americans will get cancer in his lifetime, and nearly all of us will have friends and loved ones with cancer.

Skin cancer is by far the most common type seen (especially in Florida), but fortunately is readily treatable and rarely fatal. In men, the most common cancers involve the lung, prostate, colon, and urinary tract. In women, the most common cancers involve the breast, lung, colon, uterus, and other gynecological structures.
