Cancer fights hard, so we have to fight harder.

I would say ‘check the proton center first.

“When you hear a story of someone else’s success it helps you build your courage and strength. I think it is important to share August’s story because he deserves to have his story told.” (Erica Johansen, mother of August)

“Everyone at Texas Center for Proton Therapy was a knowledgeable professional who did their work in a true spirit of service to their patients.”

“On my final day with Dr. Lee, I made sure I was going to mention to him that I was very impressed. And started off by telling him ‘I don’t impress easily, but you guys have blown me out of the water.”

“Dr. Lee — the entire staff — gave 110% effort in terms of treating the cancer and in terms of treating me.”

“From the very first day, I knew that these were people who I could entrust with my health and my body.”

"I think every morning that I get up and embrace life is to say thank you for giving me this opportunity."

“When I found out I had cancer, I promised myself that I would spread the word that screening is so important.”

“I had never seen any place like Texas Center for Proton Therapy. At the end, I was actually sad to leave.”

“Dr. Mangona was hands down the best aspect of this entire experience. He walked me through all my scans in great detail, explained how everything worked and gave me a high level of confidence walking into my first appointment. I still had plenty of fears – who wouldn’t? – but he made the whole process that much better.”
