Mesothelioma Treatment Centers
Mesothelioma is a rare form of cancer, representing less than 1 percent of all cancer types, or about 2,500 and 3,000 people in the United States annually. This means that smaller medical centers rarely see or treat patients with the disease. In addition, diagnosis and treatment of this cancer can be difficult.
For these reasons, it’s important for patients suffering from mesothelioma to be treated at centers with the proper level of expertise.
We’ve created a list of established medical centers in the United States that have programs and physicians who specialize in mesothelioma, usually as part of a division or center dedicated to thoracic diseases. These are meant as a centralized resource, not as a ranking or an endorsement of the care facilities.
Descriptions of each treatment center are adapted from the facility’s website and include links back to additional resources.
