One of White County Medical Center's missions is to ensure state-of-the-art oncology care for our community. The cancer program has been in place at WCMC since 1989.

WCMC’s cancer treatment team includes medical oncologists, pathologists, surgeons, diagnostic radiologists, a radiation oncologist, a tumor registrar, nurses, and other key hospital personnel. This group meets regularly to discuss patient care on a case-by-case basis.

WCMC maintains a complete tumor registry that enables the team to monitor patient outcome by cancer site and stage.

Patients also have the option of receiving outpatient cancer treatments at White County Medical Center.   

In order to assist cancer patients, their families, and friends, a Cancer Support Group meets in the 2 West unit on the second Thursday of the month at 6:30 p.m.

For more information, please call the oncology unit at (501) 380-3260.
