Welcome to the Cancer Therapy & Research Center (CTRC), the premier center of its kind in Central and South Texas. Patient care is the No. 1 priority at the CTRC, and we look forward to assisting you in any way we can—whether it’s simply with information or perhaps a second opinion on treatment for yourself or a family member. We have some of the world’s leading experts in different types of cancer as well as an integrated, multidisciplinary care team that means more physicians, technicians and specialists are looking at each and every case and making sure it is the optimal treatment plan.
We also conduct research and clinical trials, teaming with the National Cancer Institute, the National Institutes of Health and other universities to discover new cures and treatments for cancer. We are here for cancer patients, their families and physicians. Please let us know how we can help.
