Due to the location of head and neck tumors and the discomfort
that can come with treatment, some patients have difficulty eating
and maintaining adequate nutrition. That's why nutrition counseling
is made available through Saint Raphael's Looking Forward cancer
support, wellness and education program. Also on hand to help patients
cope with the emotional and physical aspects of a cancer diagnosis are
speech therapists , physical therapists , pastoral care counselors, an
integrative medicine coordinator, and many other specialized healthcare
professionals, such as plastic surgeons.
