Integrative Oncology in Southwest Pa.

Integrative Oncology is one of the four pillars that comprise UPMC Cancer Survivorship and Integrative Oncology at UPMC Hillman Cancer Center.

Our oncology clinicians are experts in lifestyle and integrative medicine. We work as a team to:

• Focus on ways to improve your quality of life and manage your symptoms.
• Offer a holistic approach using non-mainstream therapies to complement your standard cancer treatments.
• Care for your mind, body, and spirit in a calm and relaxed setting.
• Explore ways to avoid or minimize medicines.
• Equip you to ask questions and make decisions that fit your values.

Is Integrative Oncology for Me?

Our integrative approach is designed to improve your symptoms and quality of life. It isn't meant to treat or cure cancer.

We're not providers of naturopathic, chiropractic, or functional medicine. We don't recommend high dose or IV supplements or extensive laboratory testing, or prescribe off-label drugs.

If you have a cancer diagnosis, your doctor can refer you for an integrative oncology consultation with our oncology clinicians, or you can self-refer. This consult will help us learn if integrative oncology can satisfy your needs and expectations — or if other supportive care services are more appropriate. If we decide it will, we'll schedule you to meet with our team.
