The Valley Health Cancer Center at Winchester Medical Center is home to
our nationally accredited cancer program that offers advanced technology,
a team approach to treatment, and support for patients and their families.
Each cancer diagnosis is as unique as the patient facing this new challenge.
We treat the whole person: physical, emotional, and spiritual. The Cancer
Center brings these elements together in a welcoming destination for cancer care.
Caring for more than 1,300 newly diagnosed cancer patients each year, we
are committed to providing the best care possible with the most current
technology supporting the expertise of our team of oncology physicians
and other cancer care professionals.
The Valley Health Cancer Center has earned
accreditation from the Commission on Cancer (CoC), a quality program of the American College of Surgeons. As a CoC-accredited
facility, our center takes a multidisciplinary approach to treating cancer
as a complex group of diseases that requires consultation among surgeons,
medical and radiation oncologists, diagnostic radiologists, pathologists,
and other cancer specialists. This multidisciplinary partnership results
in improved patient care.
In March 2021, our center became the first in our tri-state region to earn
accreditation by the National Accreditation Program for Rectal Cancer.
