The Blood Cancer Healing Center at the University of Cincinnati Cancer Center has officially opened its doors, with a mission to provide comprehensive care and hope for the 1.6 million people in the U.S. who are affected by blood cancers annually. Located at 3232 Healing Way in Uptown Cincinnati, the center plans to expand throughout the year and into 2025, offering research labs for new cancer treatments and wellness areas.
Dr. John Byrd, a renowned blood cancer care expert and researcher, played a key role in the creation of the center. With a team of 256 clinicians and researchers, the center is the only blood cancer center in the U.S. to provide comprehensive care including inpatient and outpatient services, survivorship programs, integrative medicine, and spiritual care.
The Blood Cancer Healing Center aims to give patients hope for a brighter future by combining personalized, holistic care with groundbreaking research. Byrd stated that with advancements in blood cancer research, patients can now manage the disease and live longer, emphasizing the importance of early detection and treatment. The center was made possible through charitable donations and is dedicated to providing exceptional care to those affected by blood cancers.
