Oncology Pharmacists specialize in oncology medications and infusion therapy. We work collaboratively with oncologists and other health care providers to ensure patients receive safe and effective cancer care. Medications, both infused and oral, are the cornerstone of cancer treatment and supportive care for patients. 
Oncology Coordinators/Technicians prepare chemotherapy and other medications that are administered in our outpatient clinic infusion rooms. These medications are prepared in a special safety cabinet to ensure a safe, sterile, and precise product is made in a timely manner. Making Your Chemotherapy: Taking the Time to Do It Right
We also offer Oncology Medication Therapy Management (MTM) at our Masonic Cancer Clinic location. Board Certified Pharmacotherapy and Oncology Specialist, Lisa Lohr, Pharm.D., BCPS, BCOP, helps patients get the most from their medications and therapy.
We provide personalized medication therapy with a comprehensive array of services that support all of our patients’ medication health needs, including:
- Disease and side effect management

Medication production:

- Infusion preparation
Medication education (for both patients and other health care providers):
- Oral and intravenous chemotherapy

Medication Coordination:
- Take home prescriptions from our on-site retail pharmacies. Our pharmacies stock the cancer treatment medications that many other pharmacies do not carry. Our pharmacy staff has in-depth knowledge of these medications and will review new drugs as well as current medications with each patient. Medications can be sent to your home or picked up at one of our pharmacies.
- Infusion benefits verification. Our pharmacy team works with clinic financial advocates and your insurance company to ensure your treatment is covered before you arrive for your infusion appointment.
- Oral medication reimbursement expertise. Our pharmacy and clinic staff along with the financial advocate works with your insurance company so you can obtain the medications you need.
