The new facility will offer patients a wide range of treatments and imaging services.

“Today, many Rockaway residents must travel far off the peninsula to receive cancer care,” Gerard Walsh, CEO of Episcopal Health Services, said. “Traveling great distances is challenging for most cancer patients, especially if they lack transportation and are in a fragile state of health. Our community members deserve top-notch cancer care, and that’s exactly what we intend to provide.”
