Cutting-edge Cancer Care

Every patient is unique. Your treatment plan should be, too. Our specialists will partner with you and your primary care providers to get you the care you need.

We offer:

Sanford Worthington’s Infusion Center
Our infusion center supports patients in need of chemotherapy, fluids and other medical interventions. We’re open Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. We also offer flexible weekend hours based on the needs of our patients.

Linear Accelerator
The TrueBeam radiotherapy system offers remarkable accuracy. It can treat tumors and lesions in various parts of the body, including the lungs, breasts, head and neck.

The treatment works by using real-time, dynamic imaging enhanced by 2D, 3D and 4D technology. It tells your provider the exact position of the targeted treatment dose. This improves the treatment’s precision, allowing for better imaging of hard-to-reach tumors.

The system helps patients heal in fewer sessions compared to conventional therapy. Shorter sessions also lower the risks of side effects.

On-site Clinical Trials
 Sanford Worthington Cancer Center is a research site for the Minnesota Cancer Clinical Trials Network. We give our patients greater access to clinical trials and innovative treatments.

Protecting Your Heart

We educate radiation therapy patients on deep inspiration breath holds. This technique helps patients receiving treatment to their chest or breast. It may help minimize the amount of radiation that the heart is exposed to during treatment.

This method is most beneficial to patients with cancer in their left breast. It could also help patients with Hodgkin lymphoma, lung cancer or pancreatic cancer.

Your Personal Guide

Nurse navigators help guide you and your family through your cancer journey. They are registered nurses who can help:

  • Coordinate appointments, care and transportation
  • Guide you through the health care system
  • Clarify your diagnosis and treatment
  • Connect you to cancer support services and educational resources
  • Refer you to additional services such as nutrition, social support or financial counseling

Most importantly, your nurse navigator is someone you can turn to for answers and support.
