Lung cancer is the second most common cancer in the U.S.—and the leading cause of cancer deaths. At Penn Medicine Lancaster General Health we believe a team approach is the key to successful treatment.
Our team works together to develop a personalized plan of care for every person diagnosed with lung cancer.
From prevention and advanced diagnostics to multidimensional treatment, our dedicated professionals are advancing lung cancer care.

You are in the hands of a strong team of medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, surgeons, pulmonologists, primary care physicians, nurse navigators, dietitians, and social workers focused on fighting lung cancer. We collaborate to create an individualized treatment plan for every person diagnosed with lung cancer. Team members meet with patients and their families to discuss recommendations and assist in making joint decisions about the plan of care.
A weekly chest tumor board is a key component of our program. Experts in a variety of disciplines meet to review patient cases and develop recommendations. This means faster the time to treatment once a suspicious lesion is discovered.
