The Oncology Center @ St. Joseph Hospital The Oncology Center

Treating Cancer Aggressively. Treating People Compassionately.
In the battle against cancer, we show no mercy. In caring for our patients and their families, on the other hand, mercy and compassion are among our greatest strengths. It's a powerful combination: state-of-the-art cancer treatment combined with state-of-the-heart caring. At The Oncology Center at St. Joseph Hospital, we view ourselves as more than just a treatment facility. Our goal is to provide cancer patients and their loved ones with a unique community of care driven by the most advanced technologies and the heartfelt dedication of an outstanding team of professionals.

The Comprehensiveness of Our Care
Our approach to the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cancer is both comprehensive and multi-disciplinary. Our team of professionals come from diverse areas of specialty. Working together, they bring multiple perspectives and a wide range of expertise and advanced treatments to patient care. With the latest in chemotherapy and radiation therapy treatments, we're making it possible to receive innovative cancer care right in your own community. Our Mobile PET Scanner, MRI, CT, Ultrasound and Linear Accelerator are just a few of the advanced technologies we have in place. Radiation therapy is available at a convenient, off-site Linear Accelerator location. We also offer a range of complementary therapies designed to work in conjunction with treatment to increase patient comfort and sense of well-being. Relaxation techniques, for example, may be used beneficially in conjunction with chemotherapy.

If you or someone you love is dealing with cancer, The Oncology Center at St. Joseph Hospital can offer you the best of both worlds: state-of-the-art care with a state-of-the-heart philosophy; world-class treatment and clinical trials in the comfort and convenience of your own community. If you're looking for a team of professionals who treat cancer aggressively, and people compassionately, call (603) 880-3408.

The Benefits of Our Relationship with Dana-Farber/Partners Cancer Care

Currently, as the only oncology program in the region working with the world-renowned Dana-Farber/Partners Cancer Care, we can now deliver more advanced and comprehensive services than ever before. Our patients can now receive select clinical trials of new and promising treatments right here in Greater Nashua, in the comfort of a family-centered, community hospital environment.
