Since 1997, Memorial Sloan-Kettering
Cancer Center of New York City, the world’s largest private
institution devoted to advancing the prevention, diagnosis and
treatment of cancer, has extended its programs and services
to the Long Island community through the Memorial Sloan-Kettering
Cancer Center at Mercy Medical Center. The world class treatment
protocols, diagnosis techniques and staffing of MSK are now
available at Mercy’s M.I.R.A.C.L.E. Pavilion. This joint effort
offers the latest in diagnostic imaging techniques and radiation
therapies. Memorial Sloan-Kettering at Mercy also provides outpatient
radiation oncology services and medical oncology services. On-site
facilities exist to make a proper diagnosis and to establish
the extent of the disease, as well as to plan and deliver the
proper course of therapy. The center is staffed by Memorial
Sloan-Kettering physicians and meets treatment standards established
by MSKCC.
The Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center at Mercy Medical
Center is an important addition in the fight against cancer
on Long Island. MSKCC brings the most technologically advanced
cancer treatment to Mercy’s service area residents who previously
had to travel long distances to receive state-of-the-art oncology
care. This is particularly important because of the increased
incidence of cancer on Long Island.
