Radiation Treatment Schedule
Treatment times are generally given Monday through Friday, from 7 am – 5 pm. We have three treatment machines:
We Have Three Treatment Machines
You will be treated on the same machine each day. A patient may arrive after you but can be called back before you if their machine is available.
Conflicting Appointments
We understand that patients may have other doctor appointments and chemo treatments. Please let your therapist know if you will have another appointment that conflicts with your assigned radiation treatment time.
We ask that you are ready at your appointment time.
This means that if you need to use the bathroom prior to treatment or change into a gown prior to treatment, you should arrive in time to do that and be ready to be treated at your appointment time.
Please be on Time
If you are early or late, we will still treat you but you will be worked back into the schedule as efficiently as possible.
Most Treatments Take 30 Minutes Each Day
You can expect to spend 30 minutes to 1 hour in the clinic each day. The majority of this time is spent in the waiting room and getting lined up on the machine for treatment. Most radiation is very short and given between 3-10 minutes.
