MAKING WORLD-CLASS CARE
A LOCAL REALITY
We are the epicenter of healing and health in this region. We serve our patient populations
by putting advanced treatment protocols and leading-edge equipment in the hands of some
of the most compassionate, expert care providers you’ll find anywhere.
A POWERFUL ANSWER TO CANCER
Renown Institute for Cancer is the region’s leader in cancer care and offers the same
comprehensive services generally available only in much larger cities. The Institute provides care and
services from prevention and screening to diagnosis and treatment to survivorship, palliative care,
and end-of-life services.

Services include specialized cancer surgery, a state-of-the-art radiation oncology department, an
infusion center that delivers chemotherapy and other infusion therapies, and programs that support
patients and families. Programs include psychosocial and genetic counseling, symptom management,
survivorship planning, palliative and hospice care, and a dedicated hospital floor. We offer access to the
latest treatment options, including clinical trials and leading-edge technologies. We’re also pleased to
provide all patients the caring support of nurse navigators, a cancer concierge and a dedicated social worker.

College of Surgeons, Commission on Cancer Accreditation Program, the National Accreditation Program for
Breast Centers and the American College of Radiation Oncology.
“CANCER IS ONE OF THE MOST COMPLEX DIAGNOSES TO TREAT. IT
AFFECTS THE MIND, BODY AND SOUL. OUR APPROACH TO CARE BRINGS
SPECIALISTS, NURSES AND OTHER EXPERTS TOGETHER TO PROVIDE A
COORDINATED AND INDIVIDUALIZED TREATMENT PLAN.”
