Nov 24, 2024 | Public | 0 comments

The building will be two stories tall and span 4,300 square feet.

Baptist Health announces the expansion of its cancer care services in the Florida Keys with a new standalone facility in Key West. Part of Baptist Health Cancer Care, the new center will be led by a team of physicians, and offer a variety of infusion services, including chemotherapy, immunotherapy and targeted therapies for patients. Located on the site of the former Genesis Cancer Center, the facility is expected to open in Summer 2025, making it simpler for Key West and Lower Keys residents to receive care.

The two-story building spans 4,300 square feet and, upon completion, will offer advanced cancer care for patients. The new facility will feature physician offices, an infusion center, a new linear accelerator to deliver radiation therapy and an on-site CT simulator to plan radiation, all housed within a refreshed and welcoming environment.

Earlier this year, Baptist Health Fishermen’s Community Hospital opened the new Walsh Family Medical Arts Building, expanding access to infusion services and primary care in the Middle Keys.
