About the Facility

This free-standing cancer center provides specialized hematology and oncology services to an adult patient population within a structured on-site clinic setting. The facility is supported by a clinical team that includes a hematologist/oncologist, two APPs, and RNs to facilitate coordinated patient care delivery.

The Palace Theater anchors a historic theater district and hosts musicals, concerts, comedy, and family events throughout the year, while the Mattatuck Museum and Brass City Raceway provide free attractions reflecting the region's identity as a former center of brass manufacturing. Dining options range from neighborhood bars with established roots to family-run Italian restaurants, providing clinicians on assignment with accessible leisure choices during time away from clinical duties.
