Memorial Hermann Cancer Centers offer a variety of classes, events and support groups to care for the physical, social, emotional and spiritual needs that patients, survivors and caregivers have along the cancer journey. Please see below for a list of classes, events and support groups currently offered at each campus.
At Memorial Hermann we understand a cancer diagnosis can make you feel alone, and we therefore recognize how crucial it is to have support during this time. We have therefore created a closed Facebook group for patients and their families to both connect with each other, and receive insight, comfort and friendship.
Join our online community today and connect with others who can share their personal experiences, ways of coping as well as helpful resources.
Our group was created to:
Address: Medical Plaza 4, 925 Gessner Rd., Ste. 150, Houston, TX 77024
All classes are held in the Lindig Family Cancer Resource Center unless otherwise noted.
