ABOUT CANCER CENTER OF SOUTH FLORIDA:
The Cancer Center of South Florida (CCSF) provides highly personalized and world-renowned cancer care. In 2008, CCSF was established by a devoted team that trained at top-tier Boston medical programs. Together, they opened one community-based cancer center for patients on the East Coast of Florida. The local demand for cancer care created a need for additional oncology and hematology specialists, new infusion centers, and three sites. CCSF has two locations in Palm Beach County and one in Hillsborough County. In 2020, CCSF partnered with Tampa General Hospital’s Cancer Institute to offer top-tier academic-level care across Florida. This collaboration allows patients to benefit from a more extensive network of multidisciplinary specialists, advanced surgical options, national clinical trials, and comprehensive support services. Nurse navigators support patients seeking care at Tampa General and then returning to their local practice.
CCSF was rebranded as the TGH Cancer Institute/CCSF and continues to provide personalized, quality care to every patient. The physicians, advanced practice providers, oncology nurses, navigators, and pharmacy staff work collaboratively to truly understand each individual’s condition, develop customized medical options, and choose the most effective treatment plan. Throughout the patient journey, the care team ensures that every member delivers compassionate and unmatched support, making a positive difference for patients and their loved ones.
