Head and Neck Cancer Support Groups
Being diagnosed with head and neck cancer is a major life change. At the UCLA Head and Neck Cancer Program, we provide patients with psychological, emotional and social support and resources. Through these services, we help our patients cope with the quality of life challenges that cancer presents.
Our physicians and other health care professionals give presentations on topics such as:
- Cancer treatments
- Nutrition
- Swallowing
- Psychological effects of cancer
