The Heptner Cancer Center provides advanced facilities and comprehensive treatment programs for people in Gillette and northeast Wyoming. Cancer treatment falls into two primary categories--medical oncology and radiation oncology. The type of cancer, the stage it is in, and the patient's physical condition are all considered when developing a treatment plan.

After you receive a diagnosis of cancer from your medical doctor or surgeon, you are referred to the physicians in Cancer Care Services, where you collaborate with other health professionals to develop an individualized treatment plan. The treatment plan is used to implement the most effective treatment possible.

Working together to provide quality cancer care to patients in our region from diagnosis through treatment and follow-up.

If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with cancer, there are several things you may be thinking--
"This can't be true."
"I want the best medical care possible."
"I'm overwhelmed, and don't even know what to ask."
"I'm scared because I don't know what to do next."

Campbell County Memorial Hospital's Cancer Care team is here for you and your family; to walk beside you. We're here for you; we'll carry you through.
