Care . . . Designed With The Patient In Mind Cancer Care Northwest is the leading cancer care provider in the Inland Northwest. The practice is a physician-owned oncology network providing fully integrated leading-edge hematology/oncology care to patients in several state-of-the-art facilities. The staff is comprised of 18 physicians practicing in the areas of Medical, Radiation, Breast Surgery, Gynecologic and Surgical Oncology, in addition to two nurse practitioners, a physician assistant, lab assistants, Oncology Certified Nurses, RNs, LPNs, pharmacists, financial counselors, a clinical social worker and other support personnel. Services are provided from four convenient locations in the greater Spokane, Washington, area. For the convenience of cancer patients in outlying regions, Cancer Care Northwest also operates outreach clinics in Chewelah, Davenport, Moses Lake and Ritzville. We are proud to be the first and only fully integrated cancer treatment center in the Inland Northwest, offering a complete range of diagnostic tests and treatments at our comprehensive cancer centers. CT scans, X-rays, chemotherapy treatment, therapeutic radiation, on-site laboratory, clinical research and support services from our licensed social worker are all available at our North and South clinic locations. With over 20 year's of experience treating cancer patients, we recognize the importance of consolidating diagnostic tests, treatments and support programs under one roof, eliminating the need for patients to go from one facility to another for various services. Our patients lead busy lives with pressing time demands in addition to their cancer treatment, and we are committed to providing comprehensive, leading-edge treatment programs designed with patient comfort and convenience in mind. Cancer Care Northwest is the only cancer treatment facility in the Inland Northwest with its own stationary Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Scanner, the very latest nuclear imaging technology used in the diagnosis and management of various cancers and other diseases. Our new PET Scanner brings a whole new level of diagnostic capabilities to our practice and we are pleased to offer our patients and the entire Spokane medical community access to this new and exciting technology. Research is an important part of our practice, and through our associations with national and regional clinical research groups, we are currently participating in over 125 clinical trials. During the last four years, we have placed over 400 patients on trials. These cutting-edge research studies advance our knowledge and cures for various types of cancers, as well as give our patients the very latest treatment options right here at home. The physicians and staff at Cancer Care Northwest are committed to providing our patients vision, hope, passion and empowerment to help them successfully complete their healing journey and take an active role in their care. |

| A Tradition Of Excellence Cancer Care Northwest, formerly Spokane Oncology & Hematology, was founded in 1975 by Dr. Turner Wood, a highly respected Inland Northwest cancer physician. Since its beginnings, the practice has expanded to meet the needs of the community, and now includes 18 medical, radiation, gynecologic, breast surgery and surgical oncologists. In October of 1999, Cancer Care Northwest moved into its spacious new 20,500 square foot facility, realizing our vision of integrated care and improved service, while providing Spokane a new model of cancer care. The new facility gives patients access to a full range of comprehensive services at one convenient location, including on-site lab, nursing, medical oncology, therapeutic radiation, diagnostic imaging, X-rays, support programs and counseling. In June of 2000, we opened our new 12,500 square foot treatment center located in North Spokane. It is a state-of-the-art facility that expands our vision of integrated care, adds to our research capabilities, and makes treatment more convenient for our northside patients. Additionally, our new expanded Valley office renews our long-term commitment to Valley patients and allows us to better serve them by increasing the number of physicians available for consultation. Today, just as during the past two decades, we remain committed to the continual improvement of cancer care, patient comfort and convenience. |
