This world-class center for cancer research and treatment provides you a window into care and clinical research at the forefront of hematology and oncology.
Roswell Park combines providing comprehensive cancer care with conducting vital research into cancer, with more than 120 beds and an extensive outpatient practice. Its integration of research, treatment and educational programs have met rigorous national standards and made fundamental contributions to reducing the burden of cancer.
