More than 40 years ago, a group of Douglas County citizens created the non-profit Community Cancer Foundation dedicated to providing patients diagnosed with cancer a local option of high-quality radiation therapy services. The result of these efforts was the Community Cancer Center, which began serving patients in a facility off Harvard Avenue.Since then, the Community Cancer Center has grown significantly and moved to a 44,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art facility in north Roseburg that provides comprehensive and compassionate radiation therapy treatment to cancer patients throughout the Umpqua Valley. Our care was enhanced and expanded in 2020 through a professional service agreement with Oregon Health and Science University, which now oversees radiation therapy services in our facility.This means local patients no longer have to leave their own communities, in a challenging time in their lives, to benefit from the expertise and resources of the states only public academic medical center. Our fellow tenants in the Community Cancer Center include a host of independent, complementary organizations and non-profits, including Steelhead Oncology, a Mercy Medical Center lab, Douglas County Cancer Services and Camp Millennium.
