What consent forms do I need to sign before AROA begins treatment?
Before beginning treatment, you will be asked to sign a consent form that is mandated by state law. This document informs you, the patient, or a person authorized to consent for you, of possible risks and hazards involved in your treatment. A list of disclosures (possible side effects) specific to your area of treatment will be attached to the consent form. Click this link if you would like to preview the standardized consent form prior to coming in for your appointment. A form similar to this one will be given to you when you arrive at either the Temple Cancer Center or Laird Cancer Center. At that time, we will go over the form and give you an opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the treatment. After you have your questions answered to your satisfaction, you will be asked to sign the form indicating your consent to treatment. If you have questions about any of the disclosures, please ask!
