	How to provide your patients with complete lung cancer care from one access point.
	Opened in November 2005, the Baylor Charles A. Sammons Lung Cancer Center at Dallas takes a focused approach to lung cancer care management. Located at Baylor University Medical Center at Dallas, the Baylor Sammons Lung Cancer Center combines compassionate care from dedicated staff and a patient friendly, single entry point for those with suspected or diagnosed lung cancer.
