New Cancer Center Opens In Florham Park

FLORHAM PARK, NJ — The Summit Medical Group MD Anderson Cancer Center celebrated its grand opening in Florham Park earlier this week. The center is one of only two MD Anderson Cancer Center partners in the northeast.

The new cancer center will offer world-renowned treatments, some clinical trials, and brand new research methods to the region. They have new imagining and radiation technologies, specialized surgeons, and 28 comfort suites for chemotherapy. They also offer scalp cooling technologies to help prevent hair loss during chemotherapy.

“When it comes to fighting cancer, we’re arming our patients with everything we’ve got. Summit Medical Group MD Anderson offers a powerful, integrated partnership that features an extraordinary collective of oncology expertise and innovation that will transform cancer care in our community,” said Jeffrey Le Benger, M.D., chairman and chief executive officer of Summit Medical Group.

In addition to medical services, the facility is also home to a store that sells speciality apparel and comfort items for cancer patients.

“Summit Medical Group is a leader in its field, boasting more than 800 medical professionals across our Garden State who work hard to maintain its well-earned reputation for excellence in caregiving. The partnership with the world-renowned MD Anderson will add to Summit’s commitment to high-quality care by providing cancer patients with access to comprehensive, cutting-edge treatments. This new state-of-the-art facility will serve as a bulwark on the frontlines in New Jersey’s fight to end cancer,” said Governor Phil Murphy in a special letter presented at the ceremony.

The center is located at 150 Park Ave in Florham Park.
