Oncology Services in Southeast Idaho

Cancer care is never one-size-fits-all. At Portneuf Medical Center, our oncology services are designed to support patients at every stage of diagnosis and treatment. Our oncologists provide coordinated, evidence-based care using advanced treatment options and a team-based approach tailored to each patient’s needs.

Our Oncology Services

Portneuf Medical Center offers a full range of oncology services, including:

  • Medical oncology
  • Radiation therapy
  • Hematology and blood cancer care
  • Infusion therapy
  • Cancer clinical trials and research referrals

Our multidisciplinary teams collaborate closely to ensure continuity of care and individualized treatment planning.

Medical Oncology

Medical oncology focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of cancer using chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and other advanced medications.

Our medical oncologists work alongside surgeons, radiation oncologists, nurses, dietitians, and support specialists to guide patients through every phase of treatment—from diagnosis through survivorship.

Radiation Therapy

Radiation therapy uses high-energy particles or waves to target and destroy cancer cells. Treatments are typically delivered over several weeks, depending on diagnosis and treatment plan.

Our radiation oncology team uses advanced technology and evidence-based protocols to provide safe, effective treatment while minimizing side effects. Care is delivered with a focus on precision, comfort, and clinical outcomes.

Hematology Services

Hematology services focus on blood disorders and blood-related cancers, including:

  • Leukemia
  • Lymphoma
  • Multiple myeloma
  • Blood clotting disorders

Our hematology specialists provide diagnosis, treatment planning, and long-term management for patients with complex blood conditions.

Cancer Clinical Trials

Clinical trials play a critical role in advancing cancer care. Through research partnerships and referral coordination, patients may have access to investigational treatments that are not yet widely available.

Participation in a clinical trial is voluntary and carefully reviewed to ensure patient safety, informed consent, and appropriate eligibility.

Cancer Support Services

Cancer care extends beyond treatment. We offer comprehensive support services, including:

  • Nutrition counseling
  • Financial guidance
  • Social work services
  • Educational resources
  • Support groups and survivorship programs

These services are designed to support physical, emotional, and practical needs throughout treatment and recovery.
