Medical Weight Loss
Science shows quite convincingly that being fit — physically active, of a healthy weight and optimal body composition is directly connected to good health. It also shows that — even for those who are not fit — physical activity, routine exercise and even moderate weight loss have a measurable benefit to health.
Nutritional Counseling
If you have cancer, be sure that diet and nutrition are as primary a part of your care as they are in supporting or changing your body chemistry. Let us help you fight on all fronts, including in the kitchen. To schedule an appointment, call 877-41-BLOCK (877-412-5625). You can also request an appointment using our easy online form.

Colonoscopy
In the spring of 2007 I had a routine colonoscopy. I was told that the biopsy of tissue removed from the very top of my colon was abnormal and pre-cancerous… >READ MORE

Internal Medicine
Ovarian Cancer
While chronomodulated chemotherapy is not appropriate for every person or type of cancer, its use in treating metastatic colon cancer, for example, has been shown to reduce side effects, significantly increase treatment response, and allow patients who previously couldn’t tolerate conventional chemotherapy to get and continue chemo treatments. Similarly, in another chronotherapy study, patients with metatstatic ovarian cancer showed a
Colon Cancer
“The Block Center takes a whole-body approach, which I think is quite essential given the high level of recurrence among cancer patients. I wanted to do everything possible to keep that fate off the table. I wanted a long, satisfying life, and I felt the Block Center would give me the best opportunity for that. Four years since my diagnosis of Stage 3B colon cancer, there are no signs of cancer in my tests and nothing indicating cause for concern.”
Prostate Cancer
I was initially diagnosed with Prostate cancer in 2007. I wanted to run, but there was no place to go! After my surgery, the surgeon told me they had gotten all the cancer… >READ MORE
Cancer Care
Although the Block Center for Integrative Cancer Treatment is a different kind of cancer care provider, like conventional cancer care providers, we accept medical insurance for treatments and services that are routinely covered.

MRI
Medical Imaging Studies – In many cases, patients come to the Block Center with X-ray, CT, MRI and PET studies in-hand. But many do not, and many who bring their imaging results may still need further exams to evaluate disease progression, treatment effectiveness, or new or changing problems. These proven imaging modalities are essential to understanding your cancer completely, so we will order exams if and as needed.
Computed Tomography
Many insurance companies require pre-certification for certain treatments, such as chemotherapy, CT Scans, PET scans, etc. We handle all this work on your behalf in order to ensure that you meet all required pre-certification criteria and deadlines.
Chemotherapy
When you think of cancer treatment, chances are you may think first about chemotherapy. In fact, chemotherapy is the single most common type of treatment for cancer, being used to treat half of all cancer patients. A primary treatment with a long record of helping patients, chemotherapy can also be unpleasant, causing sometimes severe side effects, such as nausea, hair loss, fatigue and many others.
Radiation Therapy
At the Block Center for Integrative Cancer Treatment in Skokie, IL, exercise is as fundamental to our fight-on-all-fronts approach as are therapeutic nutrition, stress care strategies, optimal sleep, not to mention surgery, chemo, molecular or radiation therapy. So some form of physical activity and exercise regimen is part of every Block integrative treatment plan.

Skin Cancer
I was first diagnosed with melanoma at 46 years old. 50 stitches later I was fine. However, three years later, when a sore on my foot wouldn’t heal, I went to a podiatrist who cleaned… >READ MORE
