Arch Cancer Care has a mission to deliver world-class, physician-led and patient-centered cancer care by constantly striving to be a leader in technology, expertise and patient experience.
We provide personalized care to our patients every step of the way to ensure their ultimate return to a healthier lifestyle. We are able to utilize our local expertise to help redefine community uro-oncology nationwide.
The team is considered the local Missouri and Illinois experts at delivering dedicated, individualized, and personalized curative urologic cancer care. Many treatments, including radiation therapy, can be administered with no noticeable or very minimal side effects. This multidisciplinary endeavor is facilitated by close integration of urologic cancer care with primary care physicians, urologist, gastroenterologist, medical oncologist, radiologists, surgeons, and collaborative care network of additional specialized health care providers.
Patients diagnosed with urological cancer undergo a thorough assessment and evaluation of their overall health status. A careful analysis of the cancer pathology and thoughtful consideration of the potential biological behavior of the tumor is undertaken. Available treatment options are then presented based on these specific disease findings, personal patient preferences, and the experience and expertise of the treatment team. A comprehensive discussion of alternative treatment choices might include active surveillance, surgery, radiation therapy, hormonal therapy, or a combination of multiple modalities. For more advanced cancer states, additional systemic therapies might be suggested as part of the overall treatment plan.
It takes detailed attention, sophisticated technology, and a unified network of providers to successfully tackle the complexities of urological cancer care. We concentrate our activities and specializes our efforts in overcoming the logistical challenges of cancer treatment so that the patients can continue working, traveling, exercising, playing sports, or enjoying retirement time with friends and family. Our Team provides patients with a community setting where they will receive experienced care in cancer management. During the cancer journey, our primary goal is to cure the malignancy, but also to encourage and promote positive lifestyle changes so that patients will emerge as cancer survivors after treatment healthier than when they started.
