Hearst Cancer Resource Center

The Hearst Cancer Resource Center is a one-of-a-kind resource in San Luis Obispo County for those living with cancer and their families. The goal of the center is to help persons with cancer learn about the disease, recognize opportunity for improved health, build a personal support system, and gain a sense of extended family. We are dedicated to serving cancer patients and their families: ranging from those newly diagnosed with cancer, in treatment, in recovery, and beyond. No one wants to hear the word cancer, but if you do, the expert doctors and cancer specialists at French Hospital Medical Center offer comprehensive care dedicated to your health and healing.  For questions, or to learn more about the Hearst Cancer Resource Center, please call 805.542.6234.

A Cancer Diagnosis

Approximately 40 percent of all individuals will be diagnosed with cancer during their lifetime. That's a startling statistic, and one that our doctors and staff are constantly working to change. We'll help you learn about the disease, show you how to recognize ways to improve your health, offer ways to help build a personal support system, and offer a sense of extended family.
