The Cancer Center at Exempla Lutheran Medical Center (ELMC) is just what the name implies:
A place to go for the most complete cancer care and education. Staff and physicians are focused on early detection, cancer treatment and prevention.
The Cancer Center at ELMC includes the full-service Breast Center, state-of-the-art Radiation Oncology Center, Infusion Center, Internal Medicine/Oncology Unit, Rehabilitation, Education and Support Services, and a complementary and alternative health center. The Center is staffed by leading professionals who have made cancer treatment their mission in life, significantly improving patient outcomes by treating each patient as an individual, not as a diagnosis or case number. By focusing on cancer - from early diagnosis to treatment to survivorship or end-of-life care - patients, their families and the community are offered expertise, experience and compassion.
