Care Team
At Fred Hutch Cancer Center and UW Medicine, we surround you with experts who focus completely on cancer, day in and day out.
A handful of people are the core of your team for hepatic artery infusion (HAI) therapy. You will have a surgeon and medical oncologist experienced with this highly specialized treatment. You will also have an infusion nurse to drain and refill your pump. At some visits, you might see an advanced practice provider. Before surgery, you will meet with the anesthesiology team to make sure it is safe for you to get anesthesia (drugs that keep you from feeling pain during surgery).
Others may join your team based on your personal needs. We have many specialists based at the Fred Hutch South Lake Union Clinic and UW Medical Center – Montlake who know the issues that matter for people with cancer. Supportive care services are here to help, too. You may see Fred Hutch psychologists, registered dietitians, physical therapists, social workers and others. All of us specialize in caring for people during and after cancer.
