St. John’s Mercy Hospital is committed to advancing care for cancer patients in our region. In conjunction with the David C. Pratt Cancer Center at St. John’s Mercy Medical Center, we provide cancer patients access to a variety of therapies and oncology specialists.With accreditation through the Commission on Cancer under way, we’re headed in the right direction, but our region deserves more.
Here’s how you can help.
