RMCC’s Approach to Treating Cancer
At RMCC, we believe everyone should have access to the most advanced cancer treatments available. Our highly-trained oncologists work alongside a dedicated staff to bring these therapies to those entrusted in our care. We also offer access to promising new treatment options through innovative clinical research trials.
Just as importantly, we center our cancer care around your individual needs, goals, and circumstances. Our cancer doctors collaborate to create personalized treatment plans and communicate with you throughout every stage of care. If your primary care doctor, other specialist, or hospital is outside the RMCC network, we coordinate closely with them to ensure seamless communication and continuity of care.
At RMCC, cancer care is personal. We are committed to using our experience and knowledge to help guide you through treatment and recovery.
Cancer Treatments Available Through RMCC
RMCC offers access to cancer care throughout Colorado. This includes multiple locations around the state as well as large comprehensive cancer centers in Aurora, Boulder, Colorado Springs, Denver, Littleton, and Thornton. These centers provide the full gamut of evidence-based cancer treatments under one roof, making it more convenient to receive medical oncology and radiation oncology services in one location. We offer:
Clinical Research Trials
RMCC, in partnership with Sarah Cannon Research Institute (SCRI) – one of the world’s leading oncology research organizations – offers access to more clinical research trials than any other facility in Colorado.
These trials have helped advance many new, FDA-approved cancer therapies over the past decade. They’ve also given our patients access to promising new treatments before they become widely available.
Participating in a clinical trial through RMCC allows individuals the benefit of cutting-edge therapies in a community setting close to home. That means you can access advanced cancer care without needing to travel to a large academic medical center or major city.
Understanding Your Treatment Plan
At RMCC, treatment planning is collaborative. Cancer doctors work together to develop a personalized treatment plan tailored for each person. For more complex cases, oncologists from multiple disciplines meet regularly to review treatment options and determine the best approach to care. This team-based model means you benefit from the expertise and perspectives of multiple specialists all working for you.
Your care team will walk you through your recommended treatment plan and explain what to expect along the way. Some therapies will require daily treatments over several weeks, like some radiation treatment protocols. Others may involve occasional visits or one-time treatments. Sometimes, the most effective approach may involve multiple therapies at the same time, known as concurrent therapy.
