It’s not always easy to share your own health journey but ETXrex using her platform for patient education and a kind word about Dr. John and his team as well Texas Oncology is powerful.

35 years serving the Longview Community with the size and scale of Texas Oncology and Sarah Cannon Research Institute.

Incredible oncologists who live in and support our community.

We have brought stereotactic radiation to the community. We have brought a prostate cancer brachytherapy program which draws patients from all over the country. We have brought gynecological oncology. We have brought the expertise of hematologic malignancy specialists. We have brought Bispecific therapy. We have brought radiopharmaceutical therapies.

All of this while providing care in a cost effective outpatient cancer department with no facility fees or hospital markups.

Thanks for this kind and honest review!

A big shout out to the radiation team at Texas Oncology making my 45th birthday very special!

A Texas Oncology × Chit Show × Chip’s 45th birthday is a memory I won’t soon forget.

Bill Taylor’s unforgettable Chit cameo stole the show, and Jay Renshaw’s personally signed photo is a keepsake I’ll always treasure.

As a huge sketch comedy fan, The Chit Show never fails to lead to laughter and is one of my favorite shows.

One of the things I appreciate most about our team is our ability to balance the weight of what we do with moments of genuine fun. We care for patients during some of the most challenging times in their lives. The work is meaningful, emotionally demanding, and often stressful—but having incredible colleagues who know when to laugh together makes all the difference.

I’m grateful to work alongside such a talented, compassionate, and supportive team. The best teams don’t just deliver exceptional care—they enjoy each other and the mission along the way.

Coach King sharing his story is powerful. Worth the watch!

It is always powerful when a patient wants to give back by sharing their story to raise awareness.

A breast cancer diagnosis can feel overwhelming, and women deserve to understand all their options.

At Texas Oncology, patients are confident knowing their care is backed by 35+ years of experience, a statewide network of more than 800 physicians, advanced treatment options, and access to leading clinical trials.

With Texas Oncology, receiving treatment close to home never means sacrificing the highest level of care.

We are not starting a cancer program—we are 35 years into perfecting one. Experience matters.

Well stated Dr. Littlejohn!

Texas Oncology brings experienced and research-driven cancer teams close to home.

The size and scale of Texas Oncology’s clinical trial offerings is staggering.

Touching story! Mammograms saves lives.

Breast Cancer Screening is so important and it should be accessible and the how and when should be straight forward.

I professionally like the NCCN guidelines which are very similar to ABR guidelines.

National Comprehensive Cancer Network
(NCCN) Breast Cancer Screening Guidelines:

Average Risk (Age 40+)
Annual mammography
Preferred Modality
3D mammography (tomosynthesis)
Ultrasound/MRI if dense breast

High-Risk Patients
Earlier screening + annual MRI

Risk Assessment
By age ~25

This radiopharmaceutical program has been an incredible joy to see come to life.

Providing East Texas cancer patients with real HOPE through innovative, first-to-market, cutting-edge treatment options is exactly why programs like this matter.

It takes teamwork at every level to build something meaningful for patients and families — and I’m grateful for the dedicated team helping make this possible.

Proud to be first in East Texas.

Because when it comes to cancer care… experience matters!

Let me tell you a secret about cancer care…

Access to clinical trials is a MUST-HAVE when choosing a cancer provider.

Texas Oncology is part of one of the largest community-based research networks in the world, giving our patients access to hundreds of open clinical trials across Texas Oncology cancer centers throughout the state.

Innovation and clinical trial access greatly matter when fighting cancer.

Taylor’s journey from cancer patient to cancer nurse is truly awe-inspiring. What an incredible testimony of resilience, purpose, and hope. Turning personal hardship into a vocational calling to care for others is a beautiful full-circle story — and one especially worth celebrating during Nurse Week as we pause to appreciate the compassion, strength, and impact of nurses everywhere.

Thank you to Taylor (a nurse at Texas Oncology Longview Cancer Center) and to all nurses who make a difference in the lives of patients and families every single day.

The best outcome of cancer screening is finding no cancer at all.

But the purpose of screening is to catch cancer early — when treatment is often most effective and the chance for cure is highest.

The earlier we find cancer, the better chance we have to beat it.

Talk with your healthcare provider and make sure your cancer screenings are up to date.
