Advocate Lutheran General Hospital (Park Ridge, Ill.). In 2014, oncology specialists at the Cancer Care Center at Lutheran General Hospital earned an Innovator Award from the Association of Community Cancer Centers for the hospital's innovative approach to cancer care delivery. Advocate Lutheran opened the Advocate Lutheran General Survivorship Center in May 2013 as the first hospital-based, standalone center in Illinois to provide services and programs on cancer survivorship. The hospital's clinicians and researchers participate in clinical trials, and in 2015 the Julie W.
