Following the opening of the Radiation Oncology Department at Inova Fair Oaks Medical Campus, the new Breast Care Center began welcoming patients in August. The modern and soothing suite, which is conveniently located within the new Cancer Center, will allow for increased early detection services, comprehensive treatment and a program specifically for women in the Fair Oaks community who are at a high risk for developing breast cancer.
“Every programmatic effort we take is directed at enhancing the patient experience,” says Hernan Vargas, MD. “We not only provide a service and treat breast cancer, but we also take care of the person and provide an experience that transforms the patient’s life in a positive way. That’s the concept that moves this program forward.”
Inova Breast Care Center’s dedicated breast surgeons offer a high level of integrated care for patients with breast cancer and benign breast disease, and for those who are high risk. They work closely with dedicated breast radiologists, along with breast care navigators and genetic counselors. This multidisciplinary approach allows patients to be treated by a team of experts. Life with Cancer® offers educational opportunities, counseling services, art therapy, and many other supportive programs and services. Comprehensive oncology rehabilitation services are also available on the Fair Oaks Campus.
“We have state-of-the-art treatments and extraordinary support services,” notes Costanza Cocilovo, MD, FACS, Medical Director of the Inova Breast Care Institute. “We run clinical trials, and we partner with medical oncologists to provide patients with the latest chemotherapy.”
