"Work is underway to incorporate the voice of patients and members of the community into the design of the facility, as we look to build a best-in-class, human-centered experience for our cancer center of the future," said Tom Jackiewicz, President of the University of Chicago Medical Center
The $633 million project to build a 500,000-square-foot facility dedicated to cancer care and research represents one of the largest investments made by UChicago Medicine for patients and the South Side community.
As one of only two NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Centers in Illinois, the proposed 500,000-square-foot facility will allow UChicago Medicine to expand its cancer research facilities and give patients increased access to leading-edge cancer care and innovative therapies.
