Salem Regional Medical Center is transforming cancer care in our region through a strategic partnership with the University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center (UHSCC) that offers renewed hope in the fight against cancer.
The Commission on Cancer, a quality program of the American College of Surgeons has granted three-year accreditation to the UHSCC program at SRMC. This accreditation is given only to those facilities that demonstrate continued excellence in diagnosing, treating and supporting patients with cancer and their families.

►Local Access to Expert Cancer Care
Our local medical and radiation oncologists, specialty physicians and 14 multi-disciplinary teams of experts at UHSCC's main campus work together to develop patient treatment plans based on nationally-recognized guidelines.
►Breast Cancer Surgery
Women facing the breast cancer journey often need some type of breast surgery performed as part of their treatment. Board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon Linda A. Camp, M.D., FACS, MBA provides leadership for SRMC’s multidisciplinary breast cancer committee and consultative services to breast cancer patients at UHSCC at SRMC.
We will soon be the first hospital in the region to offer clinical trials, many of which involve promising new therapies before they are widely available.
