Survivorship & Support Services

We are honored to provide care for our first responders’ specific needs through our Baptist MD Anderson First Responders Program.

Our certified genetic counselors are here to help you and your family answer any questions about hereditary cancer syndromes or cancer predisposition.

Our compassionate team is here to help you during and after treatment with wellness services, along with personal care, cosmetic and comfort products designed for cancer patients.

Nurse navigators, sometimes called patient navigators or care coordinators, are health care workers who assist patients on their journey through the complex health care system. Navigators are your advocate and go-to resource during your treatment.

Our registered dieticians are here to help you cope with nutritional side effects or concerns before, during and after cancer treatment.

Cancer symptoms, treatments, and surgeries often impact the pelvic floor, resulting in sexual problems, incontinence, and pain. Pelvic floor physical therapy uses biofeedback, exercises, and massage to encourage relaxation and strengthen the lower pelvic floor muscles (for both men and women).

Being diagnosed with cancer can bring a range of emotions, including anxiety, depression, grief and fatigue. These feelings can affect not only you, the cancer patient, but your loved ones as well.

Our licensed psychologists are available to you and your family members to assist you in coping with the psychological, physical and social challenges related to a cancer diagnosis.

Our physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists and exercise physiologists are here to help you recover from the physical effects of cancer and its treatment.

Men commonly experience sexual health changes during their lifetime. These may include a decrease in libido (desire to engage in sexual activity), or a change in the ability to physically participate in sexual activities. Our Men's Sexual Health Program offers resources and treatment options for both cancer and non-cancer patients.

Women commonly experience sexual and vaginal health changes during and after cancer treatment. Our Women’s Sexual Health Program supports women as they adjust to these changes during and after cancer treatment by providing education, strategies, and treatment that supports each individual’s sexual well-being.

Our Social Services Team is here to help you and your family with the social, emotional and practical concerns of adjusting to your cancer diagnosis.

Chaplains are available to support you and your family’s spiritual or religious needs during your treatment.

Come join other patients and caregivers as our licensed mental health counselors and oncology social workers guide interactive discussion about challenges you may face during your cancer journey.

Our survivorship coordinator is here to help you through critical transitions from diagnosis, through treatment and beyond.
