CANCER TREATMENT CENTERS OF AMERICA launched a fertility preservation program, OncoPrez, at its hospitals in Chicago, Philadelphia and Tulsa.

The program makes discussions about fertility and family planning an integral part of treatment planning for all men and women of childbearing years. The program will be offered at CTCA hospitals in Atlanta and Phoenix in early 2015.

Each CTCA hospital in the program has identified a local, dedicated fertility center to provide preservation services. Patients who are interested in exploring fertility preservation are provided with a direct referral to a reproductive specialist who will work collaboratively with the patient’s CTCA oncology team.
