After a routine mammogram at Clinch Valley Health, Linda Bays was diagnosed with breast cancer. She relied on us for quality cancer care, close
to home. Linda underwent a lumpectomy, followed by chemotherapy and radiation treatments. “It never occurred to me to seek treatment anywhere else. Everything I needed was available right here,” she says. “I highly recommend anyone facing cancer count on Clinch Valley Health for great care.”
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. But battling cancer requires more than awareness. The best way to fight cancer is to detect it early – when the odds of successful treatment are highest.
When emergencies strike, minutes matter. As an accredited Chest Pain Center, we’re here with a higher level of heart care for you. That’s why you can count on us for emergency care close to home.
