PATIENT AND VISITOR INFORMATION

At Blumenthal Cancer Center, our goal is to provide patients with the highest level of healthcare. Please let us know if we can answer questions or assist you in any way during your visit. If you have questions, please call 704-355-2884 or 1-800-804-9376.

New Patients
Patients are asked to have their current insurance card and co-pay at each visit. Physicians also ask that you bring all medications you are currently taking, as well as the dosage. New patients are sent a new patient packet, which contains paperwork to be filled out prior to the first visit. Patients should complete the forms and bring them to their first visit.
