In 2010, the board of Camden’s Cooper University Hospital embarked on a plan to partner with a leading cancer care facility to advance their existing cancer treatment program. The result was a 2013 partnership with the country’s top-ranked hospital, the Houston-based MD Anderson Cancer Center.
The result of this dynamic relationship has brought state-of-the-art technologies, improved clinical research and testing, along with high-level cancer care to South Jersey residents. “It was a long process that was conceived several years before the partnership was formed,” explains Adrienne Kirby, President and CEO of Cooper University Health Care. “We wanted to find a strong national name in cancer and form a very close, tight partnership that would impact the way care is delivered.”
