Cancer is complicated enough without traveling over the bridge or riding a ferry for your care. That's why we've brought together a team of skilled, trusted professionals—for you and your family.
The Jane Thompson Russell Cancer Care Center offers a multidisciplinary team approach to cancer diagnosis and treatment. Through a unique partnership with the area's most respected cancer experts, our team includes medical oncologists, hematologists, radiation oncologists, radiologists, certified oncology nurses, dietitians, pharmacists and more.
When patients require more specialized care, such as surgery and inpatient hospitalization
for cancer-related illnesses, help is close by. Skilled surgeons at
St. Joseph Medical Center in Tacoma
perform the full-range of oncology
surgeries, including abdominal,
breast, colorectal, gynecologic,
neurologic, thoracic, urologic and
other general surgeries. And the team of physicians and certified oncology nurses at St.
Joseph provide skilled, compassionate inpatient cancer care.
A diagnosis of cancer can be one of life's greatest challenges. It's frightening
and can leave one feeling unsure about the future. But with new advancements in
cancer diagnosis and treatment, we're detecting cancer earlier and treating it with
greater success.
At the Jane Thompson Russell Cancer Care Center, our goal is to help patients and
their families cope with cancer in the most compassionate, healing environment possible.
We complement cancer treatment by integrating all aspects of healing the body, mind
and spirit.
