In spring 2019, Southampton Hospital Association (SHA) and Stony Brook Medicine celebrated a momentous milestone with the opening of The Phillips Family Cancer Center. A fully integrated site of the Stony Brook University Cancer Center, The Phillips Family Cancer Center provides radiation therapy medical oncology. The Center changes cancer care on the East End by delivering advanced, comprehensive cancer treatments in a state-of-the-art, two-level, patient-centered building and healing environment. The new Center has the latest technology, including the most advanced linear accelerator on the East End, a Varian Linear Accelerator TrueBeam™, which provides more precise targeting of cancer cells during radiation therapy, sparing healthy surrounding tissue. Every chemotherapy treatment is formulated in the on-site pharmacy.

Patients and families are cared for in private and shared treatment spaces featuring murals of soothing East End beach scenes. Chemotherapy treatment rooms feature reclining chairs overlooking outdoor landscapes supervised by Edwina von Gal of Perfect Earth Project and Christopher LaGuardia of LaGuardia Design Group. There are separate levels for Radiation Therapy and Medical Oncology patients. Mobile computers with automatic charting allow medical staff to focus more time and attention directly on the patient.

On the first level, you’ll find the Fighting Chance annex office where oncology social workers are available to counsel patients and their caregivers - - always free-of-charge. They help patients cope with the emotional and mental stress that can accompany a cancer diagnosis. Founded in 2002, Fighting Chance is a JCo-accredited non-profit headquartered in Sag Harbor.

 Additional partnerships include the Ellen Hermanson Foundation which donates funds and provides support services and The Ed & Phyllis Davis Wellness Institute which offers wellness programming. A large multi-purpose conference room hosts community outreach programs and patient support programs such as yoga, meditation and group therapy.
