We offer a wide range of services, events, support groups and more that take place daily across our campus for both patients and caregivers.

Nutrition services
Our dietitians are integral members of your healthcare team and uniquely experienced in working with cancer patients to improve nutrition status before, during and after cancer treatment. Our team can help you meet vital nutrient needs to maintain strength, energy and prevent loss of muscle mass; improve your tolerance of your treatments; and promote healing to assist recovery and reduce infection risk.
Ostomy support group
This support group offers support, education and community for patient and caregivers adjusting to an ostomy.
Incontinence treatment
Both fecal and urinary incontinence are surprisingly common in the general population, and patients with certain cancer types and treatments may face increased risk. We offer several treatment approaches including dietary consultation, pelvic floor physical therapy and sacral nerve stimulation.
Assessment & Treatment Center (ATC)
This center provides medical evaluation and treatment to our current patients with urgent, but not life-threatening, symptoms. The ATC is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The ATC is not an emergency room and does not accept walk-ins; you must be referred by your Roswell Park physician or the physician-on-call.
