Lung Cancer

One Brooklyn Health (OBH) is proud to announce the launch of a new lung cancer screening program located at the OBH Pennsylvania Brookdale Family Care Center (BFCC). This program is designed to improve early detection, treatment, and overall outcomes for individuals at risk for lung cancer.

The program combines community engagement with multidisciplinary care across primary care, pulmonology, radiology, surgery, and oncology.

At the heart of this program is a full-time dedicated clinician who will provide direct care as well as care coordination for lung cancer screening, smoking cessation, and specialized interdisciplinary care for individuals diagnosed with lung cancer. Visits will be available both in person and via telehealth, with CT lung cancer screening offered at both BHMC and IMC campuses.

Through enhanced care coordination and community outreach, OBH aims to:

· Reduce smoking rates within the community

· Increase access to lung cancer screening and treatment

· Ensure equitable care, particularly for patients from minoritized communities

· Improve early identification and treatment of lung cancer, ultimately enhancing life expectancy and quality of life.
