This weekend, our team received and began installing a new TrueBeam linear accelerator, an advanced radiation therapy system designed to deliver highly precise cancer treatment. This technology uses advanced Hypersight Imaging with Adaptive Therapy that allows our physicians to better see tumors and to focus the treatment, helping improve the treatment experience for patients. We’re looking forward to bringing this next level of care to our community!

For Women’s Health Month 💗
Clinical dietitian Lauren Underwood shares how nutrition plays a powerful role in women’s health—especially during and after menopause. From maintaining a healthy weight to choosing nutrient-rich foods like whole grains and antioxidants, small, consistent habits can help reduce risks and support overall well-being.

Because taking care of your body starts with how you fuel it.🥗 🍎

This week is National Laboratory Professionals Week, and we want to take a moment to recognize our Medical Office Laboratory Assistants!

For many of our cancer patients, lab visits are a routine but important part of their care. Our lab assistants are the ones making that happen with skill and consistency. They collect and process lab work, and keep things running smoothly so that our care teams have the information they need to make critical treatment decisions.

Beyond the technical side of the job, they also show up for patients who may be anxious, tired, or going through one of the hardest seasons of their lives...and they do it with a smile!

We are so grateful for each and every one of you!

Our clinical dietitian Lauren explains that "processed" just means a food has been modified from its natural state, think canned veggies or pickled foods. It's the ultra-processed category where things get more nuanced. More ingredients doesn't always mean worse for you. It comes down to what those ingredients are.🥗

Years before he became a patient, Alan attended the groundbreaking of the Proton Center. When prostate cancer entered his own life, that memory guided him home. After exploring every option, he chose proton therapy for its precision and peace of mind. His story is one of preparation, faith, and coming full circle.

We’re so proud to share inspiring stories like Alan's.💙
