Cervical Cancer

If you have cancer, you want care that will give you the best chance for recovery and possibly preserved fertility. Cervical cancer is cancer of your cervix, the lower, narrow part of the uterus, located between the bladder and the rectum. It forms a canal that opens into the vagina, which leads to the outside of your body. 

You’ll find the most advanced care, provided by fellowship-trained gynecologic oncologists, at Lehigh Valley Cancer Institute. They offer access to treatments that aren’t available elsewhere.

We use a multidisciplinary team approach to cervical cancer. That means whether you’re being diagnosed for the first time or looking for a second opinion, you will meet with our Gynecologic Cancer Multidisciplinary Consultation Program (Gynecologic MDC) team. This includes a gynecologic oncologist, medical oncologist, radiation oncologist and patient navigator. 

You will see the entire team of specialists the same day. Team members will review every aspect of your case and offer the best treatment recommendation – this approach is most effective in aggressively and successfully treating cancer. You will be connected to a caring support team that includes financial counselors, social workers and others who will be available to you. 

Our team also has access to groundbreaking research and clinical trials, to provide you with the most advanced options in your cancer journey.
