Follow-up care after completing treatment for cancer is an important phase of returning to health. These visits focus on evaluation for cancer recurrence and the ongoing and late effects of cancer and treatment. Follow-up care should also include recommendations for cancer screening, health promotion activities such as smoking cessation and dietary counseling, and the need to follow up with a primary local doctor for routine health care.
