Riverside Middle Peninsula Cancer Center (RMPCC) is located on the campus of Riverside Walter Reed Hospital (RWRH). The center opened in February 2004 providing the citizens of the Middle Peninsula and surrounding areas state of the art technology and a strongly credentialed and compassionate team of specialized doctors, nurses, dosimetrists, radiation therapists, physicists and other professionals.

The center houses both the Medical Oncology department and the Radiation Oncology department, a significant convenience for cancer patients.

The radiation oncology department, a service of Riverside Walter Reed Hospital, is equipped to offer the most current treatment protocols. The equipment parallels what is available at large academic institutions, providing us the ability to treat all types of cancer with external beam radiation therapy. Conformal, or 3 dimensional radiation therapy and Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) are utilized for prostate, breast, lung and brain tumors.

RMPCC emphasizes self-responsibility and family involvement. The staff helps patients and their families meet the challenge of cancer, and associated treatments, by providing education, information and compassionate care to enhance wellness and quality of life.
