An Education dedicated to excellence

“I chose to study Hematology/Oncology to make a real difference in the quality of cancer care and to help change people’s lives for the better. My education helped shape me as a doctor and as a person. But for me, learning never ends. My patients are far too important.”

We have achieved excellent results with our program. The “day 100″ post-transplant mortality rate and patient success rate of being alive and disease free match or exceed those of nationally known transplant centers. The incidence of infections in our program is significantly lower than at inpatient transplant centers. That says a lot about trusted, quality care that you can feel good about.
