“doTERRA is honored to join St. Elizabeth Healthcare in supporting patients undergoing cancer treatment,” said Dr. Russell Osguthorpe, doTERRA chief medical officer. “We continue to learn how important it is to care for the whole person and not just their symptoms or illness.

The St. Elizabeth Cancer Center will offer cancer detection, diagnosis and care—all under one roof.

Dr. Doug Flora, executive medical director of St. Elizabeth Oncology Services, said in a recent St. Elizabeth press release, “As a cancer survivor myself, I know all too well how important it is to have a multidisciplinary approach to care. Our new Cancer Center leverages the best healthcare practices to provide an advanced and personalized experience to our patients. With everything our patients need under one roof, they will spend less time worrying about where their next appointment is and more time on what matters most—healing.”
