Medical Oncology & Hematology
Samaritan and Roswell Park are joining forces to fight cancer.
To provide our community the best possible cancer care, we’ve formed a new affiliation with Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center in Buffalo, NY. Not only will this relationship enhance our capabilities and increase our resources, it will elevate our medical oncology offering by connecting patients to the innovative treatments and programs of the Roswell Park Care Network.
Medical oncology patients at Samaritan will benefit from more options and opportunities to decide the best route to treat their cancer, but they’ll maintain the same day-to-day interactions with the staff they’ve come to know.
Collaborative Care
When opened in 2018, Samaritan’s Walker Center for Cancer Care represented a $16 million local investment in the health of our community and changed the way cancer care is delivered in our region. Our collaboration with Roswell Park—widely recognized as one of the best cancer centers in the nation—will propel our medical oncology services to the next level by providing:
- Access to clinical trials
- Telemedicine
- Consultations with Roswell Park subspecialists
- Access to multi-disciplinary tumor boards
- Innovative therapies through our affiliation with Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center
- Medical oncology therapies for select cancers through Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center
- Reduced travel for patients who may otherwise seek treatment at cancer centers in New York City or out of state. Patients requiring more complex care may also be referred to Roswell Park in Buffalo.
