Harris Health plans to expand access to advanced cancer care with a new freestanding comprehensive cancer center on the Harris Health John M. O’Quinn Hospital campus in northeast Harris County. In October, Harris Health Board of Trustees approved plans to design and build the 125,000-square-foot center on the campus, where the new hospital is under construction. “Every patient deserves access to advanced cancer care close to home,” says Esmaeil Porsa, MD, president and CEO, Harris Health. “This center will expand access to specialized treatment, advanced technology, patient navigation and supportive services while creating a more seamless experience for patients and families. It reflects our commitment to ensuring that residents across Harris County have access to high-quality care close to home.” Demand for cancer care continues to grow in Harris County.
