A multidisciplinary approach to breast cancer treatment

Virtua’s breast surgeons lead a team that includes medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, oncology nurse navigators, social workers and genetic counselors—all specializing in breast cancer care. 

Alongside them is our caring cancer support network that’s here to help you feel your best through treatment. That could mean connecting you with our Cancer Center Hair Boutique for help with hair loss or connecting you and your family with a social worker to help you all navigate the changes you might experience during treatment.

The Highest Standards of Care for Our Patients

The National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers (NAPBC) recently granted full, three-year accreditation to the Virtua Breast Care Center—its fourth successive designation by the group. Administered by the American College of Surgeons, the NAPBC requires accredited programs to comply with exacting standards for treating the full spectrum of breast disease.

The NAPBC recognizes Virtua for providing “excellent evaluation and care for all patients” that includes:

• State-of-the-art technology, including MarginProbe
• Wide variety of clinical trials available through our alliance with Penn Medicine
• Specially trained oncology nurse navigators who help patients understand their diagnoses, connect them with support services and schedule appointments with specialists
• Robust genetics program with dedicated, board-certified genetic counselors
• Social workers specially trained in oncology counseling
• Early detection screening and community education
• Survivorship services, including support groups
• Palliative care for symptom relief

The Virtua program is one of just four NAPBC-accredited breast centers in South Jersey.
