The Cancer Center at Wake Forest University is an NIH-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center. Only 1% of U.S. cancer centers are designated by the National Cancer Institute as comprehensive – indicating excellence in research, patient care and education. U.S. News and World Report ranks our Comprehensive Cancer Center among the nation’s top hospitals in cancer care. Within the Cancer Center, the Centers of Excellence in Breast Cancer, Prostate Cancer and Brain Tumor assemble researchers and clinicians from different disciplines for a comprehensive look at these malignancies. In addition, other cancer types are being investigated.
