Smilow Survivorship Clinic

We recognize that anyone diagnosed with cancer is considered a survivor from the moment of their diagnosis. We provide individualized treatment summaries and survivorship care plans to support ongoing recovery and long-term survival.

We are dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for individuals impacted by cancer. We value an inclusive approach and try to meet you “where you are at,” taking care of you as a whole person. Our team of experts have the highest level of oncology training in their field. We create a supportive space to hear you voice your concerns and focus on validating and empowering you to meet your goals by using practical tools.

Our Specialized Team

Established in 2006, our Survivorship Clinic was the first multidisciplinary resource for cancer survivors in the State of Connecticut to provide patients and their families with vital information on cancer prevention, wellness, supportive services, and the latest health research related to cancer survivorship.

Our team understands that having cancer can be a life-altering experience. Survivors often have to adapt to a “new normal” that includes lifestyle changes.

Because every survivor’s experience is different, each patient who visits our Survivorship Clinic receives an individualized care plan with specific recommendations and support for issues ranging from social and emotional wellness to nutrition recommendations and exercise guidance.

What to Expect

Plan for a 2-hour visit. At the initial visit, you will meet with each provider one-on-one for 30 minutes. During this time, each provider will offer an opportunity to discuss your concerns related to their field of practice. Together, you both develop a plan to move forward living well beyond your cancer diagnosis and treatment. We see patients on average 1-3 times, depending on each patient’s needs.

The Survivorship Clinic offers referrals to additional services based upon the discussion and needs identified at your visit.
