Transportation During Treatment

Too often, one of the greatest barriers to effective treatment is just getting to the doctor.

Through generous donations to Tanner Foundation, we can make sure you don’t miss an important medical appointment just because you don’t have a ride.


Transportation during cancer treatment

Depending on your cancer and the treatment options you’ve chosen with your cancer specialists, you may require almost-daily trips to the cancer center for radiation therapy. You also will need frequent follow-up visits, additional tests and possibly regular infusions through the course of your treatment.

Even if you have a reliable vehicle, the treatments may leave you too tired to drive home.


Making access to cancer care easier

Our convenient west Georgia location makes it easier to get to your appointments without needing a lift to Atlanta or Birmingham, so you don’t have to ask too much of your loved ones who may be driving you.

And at Tanner Cancer Care, we can even come pick you up if needed to help you stay on track with your treatment.

If transportation is a need you’ll have during treatment, just talk to your patient navigator.

Esophageal Cancer: Symptoms, Screening and Prevention
Esophageal Cancer: Symptoms, Screening and Prevention

Esophageal cancer begins in the the long, hollow tube that runs from your throat to your stomach. Less common than other forms of cancer, it's particularly dangerous because it's often not diagnosed until at an advanced stage.

Being Black Raises Your Risk for Some Cancers
Being Black Raises Your Risk for Some Cancers

Not only does different cancers affect people differently, but sometimes your race raises your risk of developing cancer or your likelihood of successful treatment. Disparities in cancer rates among different racial and ethnic groups can be related to socioeconomic status, access to healthcare, systemic barriers and cultural factors. To address these disparities, we must all raise awareness, promote early detection and screenings, improve access to quality care and address the social determinants of health that contribute to worse patient outcomes.
