Physicians

Coastal Cancer Center’s physicians specialize in oncology (treatment of cancer) and hematology (treatment of blood disorders). Each of our physicians completed internships and residency training in Internal Medicine followed by two- to three-year fellowships in the areas of oncology and hematology. Each physician is board certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine for both Internal Medicine and Medical Oncology. They remain in the forefront of their field through ongoing research and continuing medical education.

Nurses

Coastal Cancer Center’s nurses are an important part of your healthcare team. They have specialized training in oncology, hematology, and chemotherapy administration and are knowledgeable regarding treatment regimens and side effects. The oncology nurse is sensitive to the needs of patients and their families. They are available to offer education and are able to discuss all aspects of care. Our nurses also help with telephone calls to evaluate and assess the patients’ needs and concerns regarding their treatment and medical conditions. They work closely with the physicians to deliver optimal care and are in a key position to provide for the complex needs of our patients.

Laboratory Technicians

Coastal Cancer Center’s laboratory services enhance a patient’s treatment process. Specially trained personnel conduct the tests necessary to track a patient’s progress and assist with follow-up care in the convenience of one location.

Diagnostic Technicians

Our diagnostic technicians perform additional tests necessary for the diagnosis and treatment process. X-Rays and CT scans are performed at our Myrtle Beach office, and Bone Density tests are conducted at the Conway office.

Medical Assistants

Our medical assistants aid physicians and nurses with clinical aspects of a patient’s care. Medical assistants greet patients, check vital signs, escort patients to the exam room or treatment suite, and schedule appointments for outside tests if needed.

CLERICAL STAFF

Patient Representatives

Patient Representatives assist patients with insurance coverage, payment plans, reimbursement or any other financial concerns.

Drug Assistance Representative

Our Patient Representatives will refer any patient needing financial assistance with treatment costs to our Drug Assistance Representative. A number of pharmaceutical companies and other organizations offer patients who meet certain financial guidelines assistance with aspects of their care that are not covered by insurance, such as drug expenses or service co-payment costs. Our Drug Assistance Representative works with patients through the application and approval process.

Registrars & Medical Records Staff

Coastal Cancer Center’s registrars are the first people patients see when they arrive for an appointment and the last they speak with before leaving. Registrars greet patients, assist them with any necessary paperwork, and schedule future appointments. The registrars and medical records staff ensure records are available and complete for your appointment.

Insurance & Billing Representatives

As a courtesy to our patients, Coastal Cancer Center's Insurance and Billing Representatives file claims to your insurance carrier for services rendered at our office. They ensure all payments are properly reimbursed according to your benefits. Our insurance representatives also assist patients with follow-up on unpaid or denied claims.
