“Proud to be part of this great group of compassionate physicians providing the best care to children, teens, and young adults with cancer in central Pennsylvania.

During Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, Penn State Health Children’s Hospital joined abc27 News for Conquering Childhood Cancer, shining a light on our childhood cancer experts and research right here in central Pennsylvania.

Dr. Smita Dandekar shared how our nationally recognized Survivorship Program helps kids thrive long after treatment ends, offering nurse coordination, neuropsychology, genetic counseling, and mental health support.

Dr. Giselle Sholler highlighted innovative therapies and clinical trials that give families hope and advance pediatric cancer care in PA and beyond.

Watch the special here.”
