Leaders in Proton Therapy
Ackerman Cancer Center is the world’s first and only private practice offering proton beam technology. Our expert radiation oncologists can precisely target tumors using this advanced type of radiation, which promises a lower risk of serious side effects and reduced radiation exposure to surrounding healthy tissue. Read about the proven benefits of proton therapy on our research page.
Hear From Our Patients
Equally as important, I worked with probably 20 different employees, doctors, nurses, PA, LPN's etc. and everyone I met was smiling, and willing to go out of their way to help me whether it was something I needed or just to answer questions. Even the janitor was nice.
Very pleasant place to face a major challenge. You are not along there.
You have treatment options
Patients with all types of cancers feel confident in our care. We provide all modalities of radiation, including conventional radiation and proton therapy: a precisely targeted option that promises fewer side effects and leads to a brighter quality of life. Ackerman Cancer Center will provide connections and collaboration with other specialists. We don’t stop with just our treatments – we form a relationship with each of our patients and follow their care outside of our office.
