The Smilow Cancer Hospital Care Center at Westerly Hospital provides access to expert cancer care and treatment for patients in southwestern Rhode Island. Comprehensive outpatient cancer services, including consultation, screening, diagnosis and treatment are available on site. Surgeries may be performed at Lawrence + Memorial Hospital or at Yale New Haven Hospital.
Dealing with cancer is hard enough without having to uproot your life or loved ones to get treated. With convenient local access to such exceptional care and treatment you won't have to.
Diagnostic imaging services include Bone Density Scan, Breast MRI, Digital Mammography, Gamma Imaging, MRI, PET/CT Scan and X-ray. Automated Whole Breast Ultrasound screenings can detect even extremely small cancers in women with dense breasts tissue. A 128-slice CT scan machine captures high-quality imaging with lower doses of radiation. Lung cancer screening is performed with a low-dose CT scanner.
Genetic counseling is offered by the Smilow Cancer Center Genetics and Prevention Screening Program, part of Yale Cancer Center.
We offer integrative medicine services in collaboration with the Crush Cancer Foundation to patients in active treatment. Patients are encouraged to discuss integrative medicine therapies with their Social Work team to learn what options are available. The team will also assist with scheduling.

Nutrition services are provided by registered dietitians and nutritionists at Smilow Cancer Hospital who work with patients to develop personalized nutrition plans aimed at preventing or controlling disease.
