Our state-of-the-art AdventHealth Cancer Institute, accredited by the Commission on Cancer, offers advanced treatments such as MRI-guided radiation therapy, significantly increasing patient capacity with a new $76.5 million facility set to open in 2024. The B.E. Smith Family Center supports children with developmental disabilities, and our Birth Center is recognized for delivering more babies annually than any other hospital in Kansas City.
