Empowering Cancer Survivors

More people are surviving cancer than ever before thanks in part to advances in diagnosis and treatment. Today, there are more than 13 million cancer survivors in the United States. The LIVESTRONG Care Plan™, powered by Penn Medicine's OncoLink, is a powerful tool for cancer survivors. The plan provides guidance to survivors, their families and their healthcare providers on managing the medical and psychosocial issues that may arise following cancer treatment.

After surviving cancer, many patients and their loved ones want to learn more about cancer risk. The Mariann and Robert MacDonald Women’s Cancer Risk Evaluation Center and Penn’s Gastrointestinal (GI) Risk Evaluation Program provide patients with information about genetic risk, specialized screenings and personalized plans for reducing cancer risk. The comprehensive programs also offer opportunities to participate in clinical trials to advance the study of inherited risk of cancer.
