In 2001, The Cancer Center at Russell Medical opened its doors. In 2012, the center partnered with the University of Alabama at Birmingham and was renamed the UAB Medicine – Russell Medical Cancer Center. By entering into this partnership, we gained the opportunity to work closely with UAB in order to support and grow our program in cancer care.
Conveniently located on the Russell Medical campus in Alexander City, Alabama, the UAB Medicine – Russell Medical Cancer Center offers advanced technology, rehabilitative care, and emotional support through our multi-disciplinary team. Providing treatment for more than 100 forms of cancer, we offer targeted chemotherapy in conjunction with Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy.
In addition to treating patients with cancer, we also provide care for patients with blood related disorders. Hematology is the branch of medicine concerned with the cause, prognosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases related to blood.
Outstanding patient care means more than treating cancer, it means caring for people as if they were members of our own family. Within the UAB Medicine – Russell Medical Cancer Center, we are committed to providing excellent care for our family of patients.
