In radiation oncology, technology is critical, and technology has changed dramatically in the last five years. Medical centers like those at Providence that have been able to keep up with those changes are now able to offer fast, painless cancer treatments that pinpoint and destroy tumor cells with startling accuracy.
Today, patients travel from as far away as Juneau, Alaska, to be treated with high dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy or with Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT). At Providence Radiation Oncology our mission is to ensure higher quality of life by destroying cancer while minimizing side effects.
Everyday, we live out that mission through our investment not only in technology, but also in people—an extraordinary team of radiation oncologists, medical oncologists, oncology nurses, and oncology social workers that welcome patients and their primary care physicians to world-class cancer care right here in Oregon.
