Oncology & Hematology

JCMG Hematology/Oncology is concerned with the study, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of cancer and precancerous disorders.

Our goal is to develop an individualized treatment plan, for our patients and their families, so that we may maximize treatment goals while providing the highest quality of care.

On staff, we have board certified physicians who have had advanced training in cancer centers throughout the country. We believe their education from varying world class institutions sets us apart from other clinics. Our physicians have brought world class hematology/oncology care to Mid-Missouri. Our nurses are highly trained with over 75 years of combined oncology experience. Many of our nurses are oncology certified; the remainder are currently completing certification requirements. Most of our staff has worked in a hematology/oncology setting for the majority of their careers and are passionate about the care they provide.

We have a family atmosphere and strive to support patients and their families during one of the most difficult times of their lives. It is truly an honor for us to care for you and your loved ones.
