What to Know About Utah Hematology Oncology’s Merge with Ogden Clinic
Effective in January 2022, Utah Hematology Oncology will be renamed Utah Hematology Oncology | Ogden Clinic. The Cancer Center maintains the same phone number, locations, and hours of operation.
Ogden Clinic is a healthcare staple in Northern Utah. However, cancer treatment was a missing piece of our medical specialties, so both practices benefit from this partnership. Utah Hematology Oncology will soon reach more patients throughout the state and accept more insurance providers than previously. This partnership also improves operations, giving cancer patients a better experience with scheduling, billing, and viewing health records. Expect the same level of care you’ve come to expect from us, now with a stronger healthcare network that’s local to Utah.
The two Cancer Centers are located in Ogden at 5290 S 400 E and in Layton at 2132 N 1700 W, Suite 301.
NEW to Ogden Clinic: Clinical Trials
Utah Hematology Oncology will also bring clinical trials to the Ogden Clinic network in January. Clinical trials help scientists answer questions about new cancer therapies, including:
- What diseases should they be used for?
- What doses of new drugs are most effective?
- Which patients can benefit the most from them?
Before a medication can be approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) it must be tested through clinical trials. Through them, we can determine if a new treatment is safe and effective for people with a specific medical condition. Treatments can be a drug, medical device, medical procedure, or a change in a person’s behavior such as diet or exercise. Nearly all cancer drugs in use today were tested and made available to patients through clinical trials.
If you are a patient of Utah Hematology Oncology and have questions, please call the main office at (801) 476-1777. To learn more about the merge or clinical trial participation, please visit our website.
