Oakwood Joins Cancer Center's Network

Oakwood Healthcare System's Cancer Center and the University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center have entered into an affiliation agreement to collaborate on programs that Oakwood offers to cancer patients in all areas of oncology.

As a member of the Cancer Center Network, Oakwood will work with the U-M to promote clinical research projects that will expand the availability of clinical trials to the community. In addition, the institutions will share resources and collaborate on cancer care treatments and coordinate initiatives related to prevention, quality and efficiency in a systematic approach.

Oakwood joins Foote Hospital in Jackson; Mt. Clemens General Hospital; Providence Hospital and Medical Centers in Novi and Southfield; and Saint Joseph Mercy Health System in Ann Arbor as current members of the U-M Cancer Center Network, a growing group of select hospitals and physician practices throughout the region dedicated to improving cancer care.
