Why Choose HOA for Multiple Myeloma Treatment

  • Infusion services, with highly trained oncology-certified nurses administering chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy in state-of-the-art infusion suites designed for patient comfort.
  • Clinical research trials that provide early access to cutting-edge treatments
  • Access to supportive care services through our social workers, who can help locate community support and services, and our dietitian, who provides nutrition support.
  • Access to our Integrative Therapy Program and Wellness Center in Camillus, where you can engage in gentle exercise programs and receive other services such as acupuncture, massage therapy, and guided meditation at a reduced price.
