From Naples to Port Charlotte, Advocate brings cancer care close to home

By Dr. Arie Dosoretz

AdvocateEvery cancer patient deserves the best care possible close to home. At Advocate we believe patients should not have to travel far to receive compassionate care from world-class physicians using top-of-the-line technology.

With the opening of Advocate Radiation Oncology’s new office in Naples, that vision continues to approach reality for the Southwest Florida community.

Advocate now offers conveniently located offices in Naples, Bonita Springs, Fort Myers, Cape Coral and Port Charlotte, ensuring that our residents have easy access to the care they need. Across Collier, Lee and Charlotte counties, Advocate patients are treated using industry-leading Varian technology, including the Halcyon, Identify and TrueBeam radiotherapy systems widely recognized as the most precise cancer-fighting machines on the market.

Patients receiving radiation often require daily treatment delivered over several weeks. During such a challenging time, staying close to home can help significantly decrease the stress associated with their diagnosis and throughout the recovery process.

The newest cancer treatment center, located at 1775 Davis Blvd. in Naples, is convenient for patients living in Naples, Marco Island and Golden Gate. Board-
certified physicians serving patients in Naples includes Dr. Graciela Garton, who completed her residency at the Mayo Graduate School of Medicine and is known for her dedication to her patients.

The new location in Naples, just east of Fifth Avenue South, is designed to make patients and their families feel comfortable. The office features an expansive lobby and reception area punctuated by a massive skylight that brightens the interior with waves of natural light. Its color scheme blends multiple shades of blue and light brown, complemented with wood flooring, to create a cozy, warm feeling. We hope that anyone who walks into our office can immediately sense the extraordinary care team we have to guide them through their treatment journey.

We continue to make major improvement in the efficacy associated with cancer treatment. The improvement in patient outcomes, including less toxicity, has to be offered in a convenient manner so that each and every patient receives the care they deserve. In Southwest Florida, Advocate Radiation Oncology will make sure that our exceptionally dedicated care team and innovative technology is just minutes away.
