Join Us for an Informative Evening: “Medicinal Marijuana Education for Cancer Patients”

At Hunterdon Hematology Oncology (HHO), we believe in empowering cancer patients with knowledge and providing them with comprehensive care.

Our “Medicinal Marijuana Education for Cancer Patients” event aims to provide a platform for individuals to learn about the advantages of incorporating medicinal marijuana into their cancer treatment. Whether you are an active oncology patient, a cancer survivor, a caregiver, a family member, a friend, or a healthcare provider, this event is open to all who wish to expand their understanding of this complementary therapy.

We are honored to have Nancy Scanlon, Pharm D., the Pharmacy Manager for Hunterdon Hematology Oncology, as our esteemed presenter. With her expertise and certification in Cannabis Healthcare & Medicine, she will lead an informative discussion on the potential benefits of medicinal marijuana for cancer patients. Nancy’s extensive knowledge and experience make her the ideal resource to address your questions and concerns.

Don’t miss this unique opportunity to engage with experts and learn more about the potential benefits of medicinal marijuana. To ensure your attendance, we encourage you to register in advance by emailing info@hhocancer.com. We look forward to seeing you on June 8th, as we come together to support and empower our community!
