Advancements in Patient Care

In 2021, Providence Holy Cross was officially designated the number one treating facility in the United States for the Y90, a procedure that targets tumors from within its feeding blood vessels, with a high dose of radiation without affecting other, healthy parts of the body. Y90 refers to the radioactive isotope Yttrium-90. 

Holy Cross is the only hospital in Providence Southern California that offers this procedure. If you would like to have a consult with Dr. Eghbalieh, please email him at: Navid.Eghbalieh@providence.org or call 818-496-4530.
