Social Work Counseling and Nutrition Services
HOPE is pleased to offer these services to our patients. Please ask your physician or nurse practitioner to refer you for these services if needed. For more information speak with Joanne Gill, CSW or our dietician Diane Inman.
Oncology Prescriptions
The HOPE staff realizes that some of the oncology prescription can be very
expensive and sometimes they are not covered by insurances. If you
have any questions or concerns regarding the cost of your medication, please
contact Joanne GIll, our social worker. There may be some help available,
or we may be able to obtain authorization from you insurance company.
LOOK GOOD FEEL BETTER, check back soon for the next date at HCCC. Call the office for more information.
