Roswell Park Care Network unites centers and teams across area, all dedicated to reducing the burden of cancer
The Roswell Park Care Network is the most expansive community cancer, supportive and specialized care affiliation in the region — spanning Western New York, Central New York and beyond — and the only one to offer patients across those locations the distinct benefits of a National Cancer Institute (NCI)-designated comprehensive cancer center.
The Roswell Park Care Network builds on existing partnerships to expand the reach and impact of comprehensive cancer care across Western and Central New York, and extending into nearby communities in Northwest Pennsylvania. The network improves the reach and impact of our comprehensive cancer services through pathway care plans developed with the expertise of Roswell Park's world-renowned physician.
“No one should have to choose between convenience and quality when facing a decision about where they or a loved one should seek care for cancer,” says Roswell Park President and CEO Candace S. Johnson, PhD. “But too many patients weren’t getting access to things like clinical trials, precision medicine and care that accords with national guidelines. So we reached out to quality-driven cancer care providers across the state to develop a program for applying Roswell Park best practices and quality oversight seamlessly across a wide variety of community settings.”
The member centers include a mix of community practices, hospital affiliates and clinical research partners:
- Breast Care of WNY, also known as Roswell Park Breast Surgery (Williamsville, NY)
- Catholic Health (Rockville Centre, NY)

Roswell Park Care Network member sites share a mission to enable better quality and efficiency in care by ensuring that patients have access to the newest technology and most innovative therapies available so that they can live their best life during and after cancer treatment. Member teams diagnose and treat all types and stages of cancers, and include physicians who specialize in the treatment of non-cancerous conditions as well. Current services offered in affiliation with Roswell Park differ by location, ranging from outpatient chemo-infusion, radiation therapy and immunotherapy to surgical consultations, second opinions, advanced diagnostics and access to new treatment approaches available through clinical trials.
