TEMPE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Arizona Oncology’s new state-of-the-art cancer treatment center, located at the Arizona State University Research Park (ASURP), is now open and offering the latest cancer treatment services available to patients in Phoenix and the East Valley. The new center, developed and built by Ryan Companies US, Inc., offers integrated, high-quality care to diagnose and treat cancer. Patient services include medical, gynecologic and radiation oncology, hematology, advanced diagnostics including PET/CT imaging, supportive care services, and clinical trials. The practice is also offering the latest treatment options for patients, including immuno-oncology, bio markers, and targeted therapies.

Arizona Oncology, a practice in The US Oncology Network, is one of the largest medical groups in Arizona devoted exclusively to cancer care. This is the practice’s twenty-first location in the Phoenix area and their first location in Tempe – the company is expanding its services to Elliot Road and Loop 101 to provide more patients with convenient and advanced cancer care closer to home.

"We have been treating patients for more than 20 years in the valley and understand the importance of offering specialized treatment close to home,” said Snehal Bhoola, MD, gynecologic oncologist, Arizona Oncology. “We pride ourselves on our patient-centered approach, which allows us to offer high-quality care."
This nearly 22,000 square-foot building is a hub for cancer care and the only one of its kind in the East Valley. The center will support six full-time oncologists, including two gynecologic oncologists, three medical oncologists, and one radiation oncologist. The facility will have two treatment vaults for radiation, a room dedicated to PET-CT scanning, 35 infusion chairs with personal tablets, 19 exam rooms, a covered patio with peaceful waterfalls, and a nursing station with semi-private scheduling areas. Additionally, the center will offer Vital Beam linear accelerator and High-Dose-Rate (HDR) Brachytherapy treatment options, in-office dispensing, cancer genetic counseling, and support services that will help patients prevent or cope with a cancer diagnosis. Social workers, nurse navigators, and patient benefit representatives will also be available to patients.

Butler Design Group designed the shell of the building, and David B. Howell Architecture & Design was tasked with designing the interior, which is filled with cutting-edge technology and comforting aesthetic features including the pharmacy’s isolated independent air system, the serene visual ceiling displays in the radiation vaults and a healing garden.
