ESTABLISHED 2015
MISSION The Cincinnati Cancer Foundation, Inc., is dedicated to reducing the suffering and mortality associated with cancer in our communities. We unite research, education, training, grantmaking, and philanthropy for one common purpose—fighting cancer.
SERVING OUR COMMUNITY We believe that great cancer care begins with a great plan. Our second opinion services are offered at no cost to patients and providers. Our cancer advisors in Cincinnati and Naples offer platinum-level expertise, comprehensive evaluations, and recommendations for care. This includes second opinions, care coordination, referrals, clinical trial navigation, financial navigation, and precision oncology services such as genetic testing and counseling.
Over 600 members of our community benefit from our services every year—all at no cost to the patient. We do not assume care, but rather we offer an expert, objective consultation to enhance the patient’s experience with their primary oncologist. This unique approach ensures that every patient has access to top-tier medical advice without the burden of additional costs.
