The new center, at 11911 N. Meridian St., is designed to serve patients in communities including Carmel, Westfield and Zionsville, according to Community.
The Carmel location, previously a Community Health Pavilion for primary care and other services, includes 17 infusion rooms, eight rooms for clinical visits, a procedure room and pharmacy. It offers lab, imaging and physical therapy services.
The Community Health Network MD Anderson Cancer Center is a partnership between Indianapolis-based hospital system Community Health Network and the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. The collaboration provides Community physicians access to MD Anderson experts for consultations and patients access to treatments, clinical trials and research studies.
Community said the partnership represents a full clinical and operational integration of Community’s cancer services with MD Anderson across its sites for cancer care.
“Our Carmel location reflects our commitment to expanding access to exceptional cancer care close to home for patients in Hamilton County,” Community MD Anderson President Richard Funnell said in a written statement.
Also in Hamilton County, Community plans to offer surgical oncology services at its $335 million Westfield Health and Wellness Campus being built at 196th Street and U.S. 31.
