Where You'll Work

Built on a vision of hope and healing, San Luis Obispo Oncology is the home of integrative and compassionate cancer care. Our center offers a new level of advanced, comprehensive cancer care and treatments, including chemotherapy, nutrition therapy, clinical research, oncology rehabilitation, mind-body medicine, and spiritual support - all in one location.

Our philosophy at SLO Oncology and Hematology Health Center is that cancer care requires a personalized approach. Cancer is not just one disease; and every cancer has a unique cause, prognosis, genetic profile. Each patient requires a unique approach and a tailored treatment plan geared toward their individual situation and biologic makeup. In addition cancer treatment, in today’s world of information excess, can be a daunting and overwhelming journey.  Our nurse navigators and community cancer support groups are all closely involved in our patient care models.   We also involve nurse navigators and local community cancer support resources such as the Hearst Cancer Resource Center.

Our care team supports patients as we would a member of our own family. Our goal at SLO Oncology is to provide a model for quality cancer care where our staff – knowing patient history, family and treatment plans – treat the whole patient, not just the disease.
