University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center Offers Customized Care for Patients with Urethral Cancer

UH Seidman Cancer Center’s fellowship-trained cancer specialists are renowned at treating urethral cancer, working together as a team to tailor cancer treatment to each patient’s individual needs and with the least impact on their health and lifestyle.
