Medicine is a science. To offer you your best chances of successful treatment and cure - for any problem - doctors follow the science and use the treatments and methods that have been shown to have a positive benefit and are known to help. At the Block Center for Integrative Cancer Treatment in Chicagoland (Skokie, IL), this is the same logic we follow in our fight against cancer.These days, "integrative cancer treatment" is almost a catchphrase, with most cancer care providers offering some kind of program that incorporates alternative or ancillary therapies and services into their care.

Like you, your cancer is unique. Yes, it's a specific cancer type and stage, but it's still a faulty expression of your individual biology. It also affects you in ways that are equally unique to you. That's why, at the Block Center for Integrative Cancer Treatment in greater Chicago, everything we do is tailored to your unique needs, blood chemistry, disease profile, tumor tissue, molecular profiling and lifestyle factors.
Interested in learning more about the Block Center's integrative treatment program, directly from Dr. Keith Block? Robin Daly, Founder and Chairman of the UK's Yes to Life integrative cancer care charity, recently interviewed Dr. Block for the charity's upcoming online patient conference, "Your Life and Cancer 2020."
In the spring of 2007 I had a routine colonoscopy. I was told that the biopsy of tissue removed from the very top of my colon was abnormal and pre-cancerous. In January of 2008 I was diagnosed with clear cell endometrial cancer and underwent surgery a few weeks later. After surgery I was Stage IIIA.
We offer all our patients an opportunity to let us know about the quality of their experience on their visits to the Center. Patients rated each of the statements shown from 1 to 10. Everyone is extremely friendly - exactly what you need in the midst of upheaval, someone to treat you gently. Overall, the experience was very very good.

A truly integrative center, the block center opened in 1980. They offer conventional chemo along with biobehavioral care, dietary assessment, supplements and vitamin infusions. all based on your specific body. I started coming here 1 month ago and my lab results have never looked better. My hair is not falling out even thought same chemo took it last year.
I feel great! There are lots of new clinics claiming integrative care as if this is a fad. However, be careful they are offering more than the conventional chemo, surgery, and radiation. The block center is taking a whole body approach and is worth looking into!

This is the most wonderful cancer center! You don't want to need such a place. But if you need it, how grateful you will be to have found it. Not only is their approach life saving for so many, but they combine heir incredible knowledge with an equal store of kindness. I was so nervous going in, and I am so grateful I did!
