APPLETON, WI (WTAQ) - A new regional cancer center is expected to open in 2016 in Appleton.
ThedaCare announced Wednesday it would build a $44 million facility that provides collaborative team-based care to cancer patients.
All services for patients and their families would be provided at one location -- therapy, oncology, behavioral health, nutrition advice, and more.
ThedaCare oncology doctor Matthew Weiss says the new center will make things much easier for cancer patients, because they'll no longer have to shuttle from one specialist to another.
The ThedaCare system has 7 hospitals in the Fox Valley.
