About Us
The Iowa City Cancer
Treatment
Center
is a free standing radiation oncology facility affiliated with Mercy
Hospital Iowa City. We
strive to provide our patients with the individualized attention
they need in a family-like setting.
Our facility offers a comforting atmosphere while utilizing
the latest techniques in radiation therapy.
In addition
to radiation therapy, our patients may receive other treatments such
as chemotherapy, hormone therapy and/or surgery.
We frequently utilize a
multi-disciplinary approach by collaborating and coordinating with
other specialists. Your
radiation oncologist may consult with other physicians as necessary
before your treatment begins to determine the best course of action.
The major goal of radiation therapy is to maximize curing cancer
while maintaining optimal organ function and quality of life.
Because each patient’s case presents unique challenges and requires
individualized attention, we urge you to consult your radiation
oncologist about which treatment plan is best for you.
