New York Cancer & Blood Specialists (NYCBS) celebrated the grand opening of its newest treatment facility, at 49 Route 347, in Port Jefferson Station on Monday, July 29. Located on Long Island’s scenic North Shore, the center will feature the most advanced cancer treatment on Long Island.
As patients enter this modern, state-of-the-art cancer center they will be greeted by friendly and professional staff, as they wait in a spacious, accommodating lounge. The new NYCBS center encompasses numerous amenities and services to patients that provide a comfortable and attentive environment that is more conducive for healing.
The most cutting-edge medical technology and equipment– including advanced PET/CT Scans and MRI machines are just some of the new features in this new facility. There will also be exclusive clinical trials, unavailable at many hospitals, and an on-site pharmacy, where patients can pick up their medication after visiting their doctor. The center will also be able to process outside laboratory treatments and deliver faster results to its patients.
