Through the Cancer Registry, the status of every current and former cancer patient is checked annually to ensure continued medical surveillance and to provide meaningful end-results data. It is important that your condition be reviewed for maintenance of good health. Information related to your treatment is also entered into the database allowing other doctors and hospitals to learn more about treatments that are providing positive results for you and other Deaconess patients. Deaconess patients who are diagnosed with cancer are automatically added to the Cancer Registry. During your annual update, the Cancer Registrar may contact you about subsequent treatment.
All information is confidential.
Once a part of the Cancer Registry, your personal information is coded by a number and not your name. We are here to help you.
