Your Cancer Care During COVID-19
Effective April 3, 2023, all City of Hope locations in California continue to require masks for patients, visitors and staff in clinical facilities. Please join us in protecting the health and safety of our community.
For patients with upcoming appointments at City of Hope:
- If you have been exposed to COVID-19, have symptoms or are waiting for test results, out of respect for the health of other patients and our care team, please do not come to your appointment in person. Virtual appointments are an option.
- Please do not come to the Evaluation & Treatment Center (ETC) for COVID-19 testing unless specifically directed to do so by your physician or if you are experiencing acute shortness of breath or another medical emergency.
Your health is our highest priority, which is why we urge you to maintain your treatments and appointments during this difficult time.
