Mercy Cancer Center Services

Our cancer specialists are happy to offer you the most effective, up-to-date treatment options available, including: 

Chemotherapy

Powerful cancer-fighting drugs and immunotherapies are available in the Mercy Infusion Center. Each of our comfortable, semiprivate treatment bays features satellite TV, DVD player and access to our multimedia library as well as seating for your caregiver. We also offer chemotherapy services at our oncology/hematology and infusion center clinics in Dexter and Perryville.

Radiation Therapy 

Since 2009, the Mercy Cancer Center has earned and maintained the prestigious accreditation from the American College of Radiology. Thanks to sophisticated technology, we can treat cancer with the utmost precision. For instance, we have the technology to shape the course of radiation to match the dimensions of a cancerous tumor. This approach spares surrounding healthy tissue, which may reduce side effects.

Thanks to Mercy's growing presence in the region, you don't have to travel far to get great cancer care. To learn more about our cancer care services or make an appointment at any of our locations, call 573-519-4800.
