Community Needs Assessment

The legacy of Watson Clinic’s Cancer & Research Center has been built upon our attentiveness to the needs of our patients and our community at large. The purpose of the community needs assessment is to identify the cancer-related needs of our population, cancer-health disparities, barriers in cancer-related resources within Polk County, and important avenues in cancer prevention such as the fight against obesity. By listening to our patient’s concerns, and studying the overall cancer-related trends in our region, we’ve captured a clearer portrait of how to best treat and reduce incidences of the disease in our community.
