Dendritic Cell Therapy
Dendritic cells play an important role in immune system activity by helping identify abnormal cells and support T-cell response. In Dr. Payán’s inpatient program, dendritic cell therapy uses the patient’s own cells as part of a coordinated treatment plan.
Autologous Bone Marrow Stem Cell Therapy
Bone marrow is involved in immune system function and cellular repair. In this program, autologous bone marrow stem cell therapy involves collecting the patient’s own bone marrow aspirate under sedation in an operating room setting.
Coordinated Inpatient Care
Therapies are coordinated throughout the inpatient stay and may be adjusted as Dr. Payán evaluates the patient’s condition, treatment response, laboratory results, imaging, and overall care needs.
Private Hospital Suites
A 28-day inpatient program can feel overwhelming at first, especially for patients traveling far from home.
Patients stay within CMN Hospital’s dedicated inpatient wing in private suites designed for comfort, privacy, and rest throughout treatment. Each suite includes a private restroom, television, Wi-Fi access, daily housekeeping, and space to rest between therapies. Meals are prepared daily and provided within the inpatient program.
Patients remain at CMN Hospital throughout treatment while receiving coordinated therapies, ongoing medical evaluation, inpatient care, and daily support within a full-service hospital setting located only minutes from Yuma, Arizona.
The Benefit of Inpatient Treatment
Patients remain at CMN Hospital throughout their treatment, allowing them to become familiar with the physicians, nurses, therapists, and medical staff involved in their care. Treatments are coordinated throughout the day within the privacy of the patient suites while also allowing time for rest, meals, quiet walks, and personal time during their stay.
Patient Education
Patients at CMN Hospital receive two complimentary guides designed to support both the emotional and educational aspects of their inpatient stay. Whether learning more about their care or taking a quiet moment to reflect between therapies, these resources are available throughout their time at CMN Hospital.

The CMN Patient Handbook explains the inpatient program, therapies, supportive care, and answers many of the questions patients commonly have during treatment.
