What Sets Us Apart
Pediatric-Focused
As nationally-known experts in childhood blood disorders and cancer, we offer leading-edge care to address your child’s individual needs. Our pediatric-focused providers, including pediatric oncologists, use a multidisciplinary team approach to provide comprehensive cancer and blood disorder care.
Comprehensive Care
We recognize a cancer or blood disorder diagnosis can impact more than just your child’s physical health. For instance, children may miss a lot of school and may have difficulty staying caught up. And while children tend to be very resilient in the face of serious diagnoses, taking care of their emotional health is just as important as taking care of their physical health.
Expert Team
We have social workers and child life specialists to help with everything from answering questions about insurance to coaching families on how to explain a diagnosis to siblings. Our Spiritual Care staff are also available 24/7 to patients and families of all faiths.
Awards and Honors
Our hospital is a member of the Children’s Oncology Group (COG), an organization dedicated to pediatric cancer research worldwide. As a member of COG, our physicians and staff participate in the latest research and treatment protocols, which lead to innovative treatments.
