Your health care related questions don’t always come to you during
normal medical office hours. That is why
Hoag Family Cancer Institute offers an after-hours oncology nurse line to answer questions and provide
education resources. The nurse line is free of charge and will connect
you with one of Hoag’s experienced oncology nurses during non-business
hours, including holidays.
Examples of what an after-hours oncology nurse can assist with:
- Help you understand tests, dietary plans, or medications your physician
has ordered
- Provide information on community support resources or groups
- Specific services and locations for Hoag Family Cancer Institute
An after-hours oncology nurse cannot diagnose a problem or recommend a
specific treatment, nor are they a substitute for your physician’s
care. If you have a life-threatening emergency, call 911.
