Bangor, Maine (January 24, 2023) – Northern Light Cancer Care at the Lafayette Family Cancer Institute in Brewer is pleased to open access to all new patient referrals for medical oncology. The team has been working diligently to ensure patients with a new cancer diagnosis can receive the care they expect and deserve close to home.
To support this access, several medical oncologists recently joined the team to support care in the coming months and three new oncologists will join in the summer. In addition, a new nurse navigation program will launch to help expand resources while streamlining patient care planning and follow through.
“Our community has put their trust in us to care for patients with cancer for decades,” says
