The Proton Center has a handout you can ask for called “Houston Attractions” listing Arts & Museums, Entertainment, Fitness Centers, Tours, etc. and a newsletter is available called “Place of Wellness” listing all sorts of activities available at M. D. Anderson.
Places to Stay
On your first visit to the Proton Therapy Center obtain their list of places to stay in the area. The list is long and the prices vary considerably. Several have negotiated better rates than those listed as you have leverage due to your length of stay even if you only return home on the weekends. Before your Simulation Visit makes some calls and during that visit check out several places and try to line one up for your extended stay.
