Lung Cancer Treatment at CHRISTUS Health

A doctor talks to her patient and comforts him

Your lungs—and your life—deserve care that's centered on you. At CHRISTUS Health, your treatment plan is personalized and created with compassion from the moment you begin your care.

Your multidisciplinary team builds a plan based on you and your specific diagnosis of lung cancer—its type, stage, and biology—as well as your personal preferences, overall health, and daily routine. You stay involved every step of the way, choosing the approach that fits you best with expert guidance, whether that’s chemotherapy, radiation, immunotherapy, or a combination.

Throughout your care, your team helps you understand each option, manage side effects, and how to move forward with confidence.

Lung Screening

Lung screenings can detect lung cancer early, when it’s most treatable. If you have a family history of lung cancer or a history of smoking, fill out this form, and a CHRISTUS representative will reach out via phone or email within 1-2 business days.

Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy for Lung Cancer

Chemotherapy for lung cancer uses medicine that travels through your body to kill cancer cells in your lungs, shrink or stop the growth of cancerous tumors, or slow the disease so you can continue your treatment plan with the support you need. Your CHRISTUS team works alongside you with advanced treatments and compassionate care to ease side effects and keep you comfortable.
