Pediatric Hematology/Oncology

Compassionate care for children who receive a blood/cancer diagnosis

Specialized Cancer Care

Built on a commitment of compassionate care and support, Golisano Children’s Hospital of Southwest Florida offers specialized care for children with cancer and blood disorders. We help families right here in our area maintain as much of their normal daily lives as possible while a child undergoes treatment.

The State of Florida Department of Children’s Medical Services designated our Hematology/Oncology program as one of just nine centers in the state for infants and children diagnosed with cancer and blood disorders.

We ensure that patients have access to advanced therapies and the collective expertise of world-renowned specialists.
