To better serve patients throughout the greater St. Louis area, Siteman Cancer Center has expanded to north St. Louis County. This new location brings nationally-recognized cancer care, including clinical trials for innovative cancer therapies, to residents in north St. Louis, the northern St. Louis suburbs, southern Illinois, and beyond.
Offering cancer care throughout the Metro St. Louis region, including at Northwest HealthCare in north St. Louis County, our sub-specialized team of Washington University physicians diagnose and treat thousands of patients each year. Our experts offer multidisciplinary care that includes surgery, radiation, chemotherapy and access to the most advanced clinical trials. Siteman Cancer Center chemotherapy infusion services are provided by Barnes-Jewish Hospital at all Missouri locations and by Memorial Hospital at Illinois locations. You can learn more about how cancer is diagnosed and treated at Siteman here.
In addition to Washington University Physicians, our staff includes registered nurses with specialized training in caring for cancer patients. A research coordinator is also available to talk with patients about possible participation in clinical trials, which provide access to new medications and treatments not available at most cancer centers.
Patients who come to our north county location can also take advantage of a wide range of support services and therapies aimed at helping them feel their best as they undergo treatment for cancer. Some of our programs include Therapeutic Horticulture with the Missouri Botanical Gardens, Touch Therapy with therapy dogs, and gentle yoga. We also have trained social workers on staff who can help patients with specific problems at home or at work that might arise during treatment.
