Community oncology practices put patients first. Hope Cancer Clinic established a much-needed treatment center in the community, giving residents of Pahrump, Nevada, high-quality, affordable cancer care close to home. Now they don’t have to choose between forgoing lifesaving treatment or traveling hours each day to Las Vegas and back.

As founding partner and medical oncologist Dr. Raja Mehdi says, “As community oncologists, we have to be able to deliver care closest to where the patient lives. That’s the whole goal. The heart of cancer care is community oncology. We have to go where the patients are.”
