Cancer may make you feel like you’ve lost control. We’ll put you back in charge of your life with proven therapies and the latest science, keeping you close to home and the people who help you stay strong.
Cancer Centers of Colorado at Good Samaritan Medical Center offers the choices in treatment and technology you’d expect from a national cancer institute but with a much more personal touch.
From the moment you’re diagnosed, you’ll have a dedicated, caring team focused on your needs, starting with a nurse navigator who will assist you every step of the way.

From there, we make a plan to address each concern so you can focus on the business of getting well. Every service you need can be found in one place within our hospital.
We want you to focus on getting better, not whom to call, where to go or what to do. To help you navigate your cancer journey, our patient navigators are right beside you every step of the way. In addition, you have access to registered dietitians, social workers, chaplains and trained medical librarians who provide you with educational resources.

This includes integrative therapies such as acupuncture and massage, spiritual care and stress management. We also partner with home care providers.
Our doctors have trained at some of the most well-known schools and hospitals in the country and bring this expertise to you, so you benefit from high-quality care close to the support of family and friends. Good Samaritan Medical Center is part of a larger network of hospitals across the Denver area that offer even more knowledge, expertise and resources to your treatment plan, when needed.
We recognize that a cancer diagnosis is more than a disease, so we assemble a team of professionals, from therapists and nutritionists to social workers and chaplains, who work closely together in a coordinated approach to treating you as a whole person.
And the most important member of the team? You. We make you an active participant and decision-maker in your care plan.
From support groups to financial assistance, our teams are readily available to help you navigate your cancer care and makes sense of what can be overwhelming and complex.
Sometimes the most comforting words are from fellow cancer survivors. Learn directly from patients who’ve fought cancer and won.
