This descriptive, cross-sectional study will survey patients with a current or previous diagnosis of non-metastatic solid tumor malignancy who are being seen at the Indiana University Simon Cancer in Indianapolis, Indiana. Patients with active, incurable disease are excluded. Willing and eligible patients will complete a brief, 14 question survey while seen in the waiting room of the women's or multi-disciplinary clinics. We aim to survey 350 patients over a 6 month period. Patients will fill out the survey at only one point in time and no patient identifiers will be kept. The physician survey will be emailed to oncologist/hematologists practicing within IUSCC who see patients at least once per week. Physicians will receive a survey at only one point in time. The survey will be anonymous and no physician identifiers will be kept. Primary objective Estimate the proportion of patients with curable solid tumor malignancies seen at the Indiana University Simon Cancer Center who are meeting exercise recommendations for cancer survivors (more than 150 minutes per week of moderate or 75 minutes per week of vigorous activity). Secondary objectives Assess patients' perceived barriers to exercise during cancer survivorship Assess patients' preferences for receiving exercise recommendations Assess oncologists' perceived barriers to making exercise recommendations Assess oncologists' preferences for exercise and physical activity resources that could be provided by the cancer center
