Louisville, Ky.-based Norton Healthcare held a ceremonial ribbon cutting Oct. 24 for the completion of Norton Cancer Institute– Brownsboro.
The $38 million comprehensive cancer care center, which opens to patients Nov. 5, offers radiation oncology, medical oncology and infusion therapy. Features include a healing garden, quiet room, education center and patient care areas.
"We thank our board of trustees for their commitment to meet the increasing and changing cancer care needs of our community and region," said Russell Cox, president and CEO of Norton Healthcare. "This building represents our commitment to whole-patient care focused on compassion and respect."
The cancer center is the latest Norton Cancer Institute location in the Louisville area. Other Norton Cancer Institute locations include radiation therapy and multidisciplinary clinics in downtown Louisville, as well as a radiation center on Norton Healthcare's St. Matthews campus.
The institute serves more than 4,000 newly diagnosed cancer patients annually.
