At the Regional Cancer Center at Saint Michael’s Medical Center — a patient-friendly, one-story building featuring an abundance of natural light and a wonderfully open sense of space — a dedicated team of physicians, nurses, technical, and support staff works to provide patients with the best in medical, surgical, and radiation oncology services.
The staff uses the latest cancer-care technology available, including Varian 21 EX linear accelerators, the most sophisticated machines available for intensity modulated radiation therapy, a dedicated CT simulator, computer-based external beam and brachytherapy dose planning systems, and three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy, which focuses radiation to target the geometric shapes of tumors, thus sparing healthy tissue. The Regional Cancer Center — which has received program approval from the American College of Surgeons’ Commission on Cancer for the three-year period, 2004 - 2007 — also offers important ancillary services, including valet parking, support groups, an on-site pharmacy, a nutrition center, access to social services, and a phlebotomy lab. The Center’s medical leadership includes Dr. Glen Gejerman, director of Radiation Oncology; Dr. Gunwant Guron, director of Hematology/Oncology; and Dr. Andreas A. Savapoulos, chief of Hematology/Oncology at Columbus Hospital.
