Cancer Center, Moorland Reserve Health Center

The Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin Cancer Network at Moorland Reserve Health Center offers hematology and oncology care for patients with a wide range of cancer diagnoses. Hematology and oncology focus on chemotherapy, hormone therapy and/or immunotherapy and targeted therapies.

Moorland Reserve Health Center's cancer services make it easy for you to receive these daily or weekly treatments close to home. If highly specialized treatment is needed, including clinical trials, patients may receive care at the Clinical Cancer Center on the Froedtert Hospital campus in Wauwatosa, and return to their own community for on-going hematology and oncology treatment or follow-up care.

Because our physicians are part of the Froedtert & MCW Cancer Network, patients have access to an entire team of experts who can support them through the physical, emotional and economic issues that may arise with cancer and its treatment.

• Psycho-Oncology Services. Our clinical nurse specialist helps patients and their families cope with emotions related to the diagnosis and treatment, such as anxiety, depression, frustration and anger. She offers counseling, assists with family conflicts related to the diagnosis, and can prescribe medications if needed.
   
• Cancer Genetic Assessment. A specially trained, certified genetic counselor helps patients and family understand their risk of developing inherited forms of cancer.
   
• Social Services. Social workers are available to help cancer patients access community and other resources and receive the support they need.
   
• Nutrition Services. Oncology-certified nutrition experts assess and recommend solutions to nutrition problems, create customized eating plans, and support cancer patients in maintaining better health throughout treatment and recovery.
   

• Physical and Occupational Therapy. Rehabilitation provided by experienced physical and occupational therapists is an important part of the comprehensive care for patients undergoing cancer treatment. Rehabilitation focuses on improving quality of life and functional independence in mobility, safety and activities of daily living after cancer treatment.
