Cancer Centers
Sentara Cancer Network is dedicated to making the diagnostic and treatment process as easy and stress-free as possible for patients and caregivers. The 12 acute care hospitals and three dedicated cancer centers that comprise the Sentara Cancer Network serve as strong community assets throughout the region by providing comprehensive services close to where people live and work. We realize that people diagnosed with cancer often have multiple appointments with specialists in a single day. We continue to look for ways to streamline the care process so that patients have more time to focus on healing.
Sentara Brock Cancer Center
The state-of-the-art facility is the regional hub of the Sentara Cancer Network, which coordinates highly skilled physicians, specialists and researchers as they work to better understand cancer, detect it earlier, and treat it more effectively.
Our center is a true collaboration between Sentara Medical Group, Eastern Virginia Medical School, Virginia Oncology Associates and other community organizations to deliver a healing environment for patients at every stage of their journey, from initial diagnosis through long-term, healthy survivorship.
Patient and caregiver input was instrumental in creating the center, which features:
Centralized cancer services: Sentara Brock Cancer Center brings all members of a patient’s care team together under one roof to address needs in a healing environment. Patients can receive same-day consultations from specialists across a variety of disciplines. This co-location allows for more fully integrated palliative care, rehabilitation and survivorship programs.
Support services: This center is home to the Carrillo Kern Center for Integrative Therapies, a regional first for comprehensive mind, body, and spiritual support services. Survivors and caregivers have access to services such as acupuncture, art therapy, integrative nutrition, mindfulness meditation, support groups, reiki, Tai Chi, yoga, exercise wellness and more.
Research partnerships: Our increased collaboration with Virginia Oncology Associates, Eastern Virginia Medical School and numerous clinical community partners allows us to put the latest research findings into action through clinical trials. Physicians are able to seamlessly translate clinical research findings into the latest cancer treatments and advanced technology directly to patients. The center is home to the Luke Hillier Cancer Research Alliance.
