Tobacco Cessation
Smoke-free cancer patients feel better during and after treatment and have a better chance of recovery. Whether you are ready to quit or just thinking about it, we can help. Our tobacco treatment specialists will create a personal treatment plan to help you increase your confidence and motivation to quit tobacco. We reach out to all patients who use tobacco, but you can also contact us directly by calling 716-845-1339 or email us at TreatTobacco@RoswellPark.org.

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.
Supportive & Palliative Care
Our Supportive & Palliative Care program provides essential support and symptom management to patients facing difficult symptoms such as pain, nausea, poor sleep, or anxiety related to cancer and its treatment, or who may be feeling overwhelmed or don't have the support they need to get through their treatment. Our team will take the time to listen to you, assess your symptoms and provide a way forward to relieve pain and other symptoms, improve quality of life and ease emotional distress and anxiety.
Survivorship care
We want to help you make life after cancer the best it can be! Our survivorship team can help you build a plan that is specific to you and your journey, creating a clear map for the road ahead.
