The Methodist Hospital, an internationally recognized leader in cancer care, offers preventative, diagnostic and therapeutic strategies based on clinical experience as well as scientific investigation.

A 'bench-to-bedside' approach

Accreditation
Methodist Cancer Center is accreditated by the Commision on Cancer.
From the laboratory bench to the patient's bedside, The Methodist Hospital is integrally involved in improving clinical outcomes through evidence-based medicine. This comprehensive approach is based on a dedication to science as the root and measure of clinical practice.

Physicians and scientists at Methodist are aggressively engaged in investigations designed to uncover the genetic and environmental causes of disease. Patients are afforded the opportunity to participate by volunteering for hundreds of federally and privately funded clinical trials. Involvement in these investigations often gives patients access to novel diagnostic and therapeutic options, as well as medications, that are unavailable outside of the controlled, experimental setting.

The effort to expand clinical options through scientific investigation is supported by the Methodist Research Institute and collaboration, via cooperative group trials, with medical and research institutions worldwide.
