Overview – The OSUCCC – James Cancer Clinical Services include a number of different care and treatment areas, and subspecialists span a broad range of disciplines: from medical oncologists, hematologists, surgical oncologists and radiation oncologists to molecular and biological pathologists, genetic scientists to physical therapists and more — all specializing in one specific cancer (and only that cancer) and its research, prevention, detection, treatment and cure.

As the third largest cancer hospital in the U.S., they deliver the most advanced treatments to help patients overcome cancer. From groundbreaking science to state-of-the-art procedures.

At The James, they combine research expertise, clinical talent and support resources to deliver the most effective cancer care. Here, experts identify and understand cancer at the biologic and genetic levels, unlocking the code of each patient’s cancer to deliver targeted and tailored treatment.

Their dedication to safety and advanced patient care are as personalized and individualized as their targeted cancer treatments and therapies.

The OSUCCC – James has been recognized as one of the safest, most effective hospitals in the nation, according to Leapfrog’s 2011 review. Of the more than 1,200 hospitals across the country that participate in the Leapfrog project with voluntary evaluations on everything from computerized physician order entry to intensive care unit staffing, the OSUCCC – James is one of only a handful to receive the highest scores and the only hospital in Ohio to make the list.

Their concentrated focus on the National Patient Safety Goals and The Joint Commission accreditation standards enables the entire team to deliver the latest, most targeted cancer therapies and advanced clinical trials – all of which work together, leading to improved outcomes, faster responses and fewer side effects for patients.
