We took a moment to hear from our team at the Fort Myers Cancer Center about their passion for FCS and providing compassionate, personalized cancer care. Spoiler alert: it's the people and, most importantly, our patients. Located on Gladiolus Drive, we often refer to this office and this team as "GLO." After watching the video, you'll have to admit, there is a certain "glow" with this team that resonates with everyone they encounter.
