At St. Vincent Medical Center, we approach the treatment of cancer aggressively, but with great sensitivity toward and compassion for our patients and their families. Our Cancer Treatment Center offers a variety of options, including chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and surgery. Patients find additional comfort and support through the services of our Center for Health & Healing.

St. Vincent Medical Center works closely with the National Cancer Institute (NCI), the government agency that sets the standards for cancer treatment in the United States. NCI-affiliated hospitals are required to take part in an intensive review process, and usually only those conducting the most promising and leading-edge research are associated with this government agency. As you will see as you read through our site, providing hope for those with cancer is key to also helping find a cure. Through new treatment opportunities, clinical trials and more, the Cancer Treatment Center is recognized as a community leader in cancer care.
Our mission is to provide comprehensive cancer care. Our oncologists endeavor to achieve a superior outcome, quality of life, and survival for each patient.
