Another important dimension of the Breast Care Program is that of sharing and support. The staff understands that the diagnosis and treatment of cancer can evoke strong feelings and concerns from patients and their families. Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas offers several support groups to cancer patients, patients with other illnesses and their families.
Woman to Woman
Woman to Woman is a support group designed especially for women with breast cancer. Woman to Woman meets from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. on the first and third Thursday of each month in the Radiation Oncology Center. For more information, call 214-345-2598.
Reach to Recovery
Reach to Recovery is a rehabilitation program designed to help women meet the physical, emotional and cosmetic needs related to their disease and/or its treatment. Women who have or have had breast cancer can benefit from this program, which requires a physician referral. For more information, call 214-345-2598.
Dialogue
Dialogue is an informal discussion group providing opportunities to share common experiences in coping with cancer. This ongoing program continues through the year. Dialogue meets at 7 p.m. on the second and fourth Thursday of every month in the Radiation Oncology Center.
