Primary care providers play a vital role in their patient’s care, supporting them during their cancer journey. This page contains cancer treatment information from across Northwestern Ontario, as well as links to the Symptom Management Guides. More information on cancer treatment, written primarily for patients, can be found here: Information for Patients and Families - Cancer Treatment
