"I have never worked in a facility where proton therapy is used for cancer treatment, but I was very intrigued when I read about Loma Linda UMC having a proton therapy unit and being one of the institutions that pioneered their use. I am always amazed at the advancements made in medicine, and I am excited about the possibility of working somewhere that embraces new efforts to improve the quality of life for patients like you do here."

Proton radiation treatment, or proton beam therapy, is the most precise and advanced form of radiation therapy available today. It is a painless, non-invasive treatment that allows patients to maintain their quality of life and quickly resume normal activities.

Proton therapy allows patients to maintain their quality of life quickly, which goes hand in hand with the mission of 'making man whole.'
