10%Tennessee Oncology opens state-of-the-art Medical Center in Tullahoma. Tennessee Oncology, which treats nearly half the cancer patients in the Volunteer state, recently opened its new Tullahoma Medical Center, a state-of-the-art medical facility located at 2230 N. Jackson Street. Situated on a three-acre campus in Tullahoma's north commercial gateway, the 33,000-square-foot center brings together medical oncology, radiation oncology and imaging services under one roof, providing patients with comprehensive cancer care close to where they live and work. The new center expands access to advanced cancer treatments and diagnostic services, reducing the need for patients to travel outside the Tullahoma region to receive care. "As Tennessee Oncology celebrates its 50th anniversary of caring for patients across our state, I can't think of a better example of our commitment to bringing world-class cancer care close to home than the opening of our new cancer center in Tullahoma," said Natalie Dickson, MD, president and CEO of Tennessee Oncology. "By bringing multiple services together in one location, we're making care more coordinated, easier to navigate and more accessible for patients and their families. This new facility represents a significant investment in the health and future of the Tullahoma community." The medical oncology teams consists of Ryan Carr MD, Dr. Nnamdi Eze MD, and Brian Schlick, MD. The radiation oncologists caring for patients in Tullahoma include Andrew Camarata, MD, MBA, who is Board Certified in Radiation Oncology, and Lauren Kropp MD, who is the latest radiation oncologist to join Tennessee Oncology's growing Tullahoma-based team. Tennessee Oncology extends its sincere appreciation to the City of Tullahoma, the local business community, Precise Construction, Grace Herbert Curtis Architects, and Johnson Development for their support and partnership in bringing this project to life. To celebrate the opening of the new center as a symbol of hope, healing and the enduring strength of the Tullahoma community, Tennessee Oncology will host a community open house on Monday, Aug. 31, from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. "The Tullahoma Medical Center is a continuation of the incredible legacy of Dr. Mainuddin Ahmed and Dr. Adil Mohyuddin, whose dedication to cancer care in this region laid the foundation for this new center," Dr. Dickson said. "Their commitment created a culture of excellence that has brought world-class cancer care to patients in Tullahoma for decades, and we are honored to build upon that legacy."

Executing a major renovation around cancer care: how Tennessee Oncology is giving its downtown Chattanooga office a major facelift. Tennessee Oncology, which treats nearly half the cancer patients in the Volunteer State, opened the newly-renovated lobby today and began construction on the second and third floors at its downtown Chattanooga clinic, located at 1032 McCallie Ave., as part of a two-year overhaul. Renovating an operational oncology clinic requires expertise so that patient care is not disrupted and the project build-out can be staged efficiently. Tennessee Oncology is partnering with Blevins Construction and Tinker Ma to double the overall size of the clinic, including: * Expanding patient check-in and check-out areas * Doubling the infusion room space * Tripling the exam and new patient consult rooms * Increasing the laboratory, pharmacy, and research pharmacy areas * Adding an administrative suite "Tennessee Oncology has deep roots in the Chattanooga community, and we're excited to unveil our newly renovated lobby and welcome patients and their families into a space designed to enhance the patient experience," said Natalie Dickson, MD, CEO and President of Tennessee Oncology. "As our practice has grown throughout the state, we've learned valuable lessons in how to expand without interrupting patient care. I'm proud of how our care teams ensured their patients' needs were met throughout the first phase of construction and look forward to the project's completion." At the downtown Chattanooga clinic, six physicians and six advanced practice providers care for patients. Throughout the renovation, Tennessee Oncology's clinical and operational teams will work closely to ensure uninterrupted access to care while construction progresses in phases around active patient treatment areas. The renovation reflects Tennessee Oncology's long-term commitment to the Chattanooga community and will provide patients, caregivers, and staff with a significantly expanded and modernized facility designed to support continued growth, enhance the patient experience, and increase access to high-quality cancer care for years to come.
