- ColonoscopyLung cancer screening is a regular preventive health check, like a mammogram or a colonoscopy, and most people who get screened do not have cancer. The low-dose CT checks your lungs while you are healthy and looks for any changes from year to year. With that information, if medical care is ever necessary, we can intervene at the earliest stage of disease when remission rates are far greater.Â

- Colon CancerI’m only 48 years old, how can I have colon cancer? That was the first thought that went through my mind when I got the news. After getting over the initial shock, I immediately went into survival mode, knowing that there was no way I was going to let cancer beat me. Thankfully, everyone at HOA shared my fighting spirit. It wasn’t long after getting my diagnosis that my daughter and I were back at the Dome cheering on our favorite team and feeling grateful that I had my own cheering section at HOA filled with the region’s most experienced nurses and physicians who were dedicated to helping me beat cancer.
- Prostate CancerI was diagnosed with prostate cancer after a biopsy in 2016. Initially, I didn’t even want to have the biopsy performed as I had heard so many negative things about them; however, my urologist urged me to have one and, after doing some of my own research, I agreed. When I received my diagnosis, I accepted it but was concerned about the seriousness of it. My urologist referred me to another physician in his group, who recommended a lengthy procedure that would require treatments five times a week for 5-6 weeks. 
A member of my church had experienced this and complained about it so after hearing that, I began to do my own research. That led me to HOA and CyberKnife®.
