At City of Hope, we know that non-Hodgkin lymphoma is a complex disease that requires expert care.
That’s why we work with you, and one another, to develop a comprehensive treatment plan personalized to your individual needs, preferences and goals. Our hematologic oncologists are trained and experienced in all stages of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, from diagnosing the disease, to treating it and managing its side effects, to survivorship. We involve you at every step, so you can make informed decisions about the road ahead. We treat each patient not just as a whole person, but like we’d want our own family to be treated.
Cancer Treatment Centers of America® (CTCA) is now City of Hope®, joining forces to expand patient access to personalized, comprehensive cancer care.
Your multidisciplinary team of oncologists and supportive care providers work with you to develop a treatment plan tailored to your diagnosis and needs. Your treatments may include chemotherapy, immunotherapy, stem cell transplantation and/or targeted therapy. Radiation therapy may be used to destroy lymphoma cells or to prevent the cells from growing and reproducing. It may also be used to relieve pain or discomfort caused by an enlarged spleen or swollen lymph nodes.

Your non-Hodgkin lymphoma care team works all under one roof. That means you have access to state-of-the-art cancer treatments and supportive care services, all in one location. Your team is led by a hematologic oncologist, and your treatment plan is coordinated by a care manager dedicated to orchestrating your schedule, communicating with the rest of your care team, getting your questions answered and helping you access your test results in a timely manner. Your care team may also include a medical oncologist, a radiation oncologist, oncology nurses and a variety of supportive care providers.

Our doctors work with supportive care providers to deliver evidence-informed services designed to address the symptoms of your disease and the side effects of treatment. That’s what supportive care is about: keeping you strong so you can better tolerate your treatments and maintain your quality of life. Our supportive care services include nutritional support to help you develop a diet plan to help stay nourished, while pain management physicians offer medication and non-medicinal approaches to help you keep your pain in check. And our spiritual support and behavioral health providers are available to help support your mental and emotional health before, during and after your treatment.

“I was drawn to City of Hope to help develop a multi-disciplinary team of doctors and clinicians focused solely on helping patients with hematologic cancers through advanced care and clinical trials.”
Clinical trials are critical tools researchers and doctors use to determine the safety and effectiveness of new drugs and therapies. At City of Hope, we’re committed to offering our patients innovative and new cancer treatments, including access to clinical trials when appropriate. These trials may provide therapies that are not yet widely available to qualified patients who have exhausted conventional treatment options or whose cancer is advanced or difficult to treat. Our cancer doctors and researchers will work with you to determine whether you qualify for a trial and, if so, help you enroll.

From the start of my three-day consultation, I could see how City of Hope was different. The way we were greeted and the overall atmosphere were so welcoming. We received a schedule for the visit, found out about activities we could join while we were there and had virtually everything taken care of."
