Cancers treated include lung, esophagus, prostate, bladder, kidney and testicular cancers. Initial consultations are available at Siteman at Memorial Hospital Shiloh, 1418 Cross St.

Comprising the cancer research, prevention and treatment programs of Barnes-Jewish Hospital and the School of Medicine, Siteman is the only National Cancer Institute (NCI)-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center in Southern Illinois and Missouri. Such cancer centers are funded by NCI to deliver cutting-edge cancer treatments to patients and also are recognized for their leadership and the breadth and depth of their research.
