Overview

Overview

Learning that you or someone you love has cancer can be one of the most difficult things you'll ever go through. Union Hospital provides cancer care options allowing patients to focus on treatment and recovery without the additional burdens that lengthy travel may create. Board-certified physicians work with patients to develop the treatment options that are best for them, close to home. Should our board-certified hematologists and oncologists recommend chemotherapy, treatment is available on the Union Hospital campus.

Patients are usually referred to cancer specialists by their doctors. If you or a loved one has a diagnosis of cancer, talk to your doctor about cancer care options at Union Hospital.

Radiation Oncology

Radiation Oncology

Opening June 2025

Over half of all cancer patients receive some radiation therapy, or radiotherapy, as part of their treatment. Most used to treat many types of skin cancers, radiotherapy can also be effective in treating certain stages of cervical, uterine, breast and prostate cancer, as well as some types of leukemia and lymphoma. Radiation may also be used in conjunction with cancer-fighting drugs or to alleviate cancer symptoms.

In the spirit of our mission, our radiation therapy providers at Union Hospital create a friendly, caring atmosphere for patients. Patients are encouraged to express their needs and concerns and be assured that staff members will listen and respond promptly and with consideration, minimizing patient anxiety and wait time. 

The center is conveniently located on the Union Hospital campus in Dover, allowing patients to stay close to home and eliminating concerns about long drives for care.
