WEST CANCER CENTER celebrated the grand opening of its East Campus location with a ribbon-cutting ceremony Nov. 17.

The 123,000 square foot facility combines West Cancer Center’s multispecialty services and clinical research program all at one location.

“This marks another milestone in the transformation of how we care for and treat our patients,” said Erich Mounce, CEO of West Cancer Center.

“By physically combining the forces of our multidisciplinary specialty teams into one facility, we are creating an environment that truly fosters collaboration and produces a unique understanding of what each specialty requires, allowing everyone to perform at their highest level.”

The opening is a result of a partnership between Methodist Healthcare, the University of Tennessee Health Science Center, and West Clinic, who joined together in January 2012 to form West Cancer Center.
