“Since I was lucky enough to be treated in the brand new Schar Cancer Center, I imagine I was in the best and most comfortable chemo facility in the country. I especially appreciated all of the gorgeous artwork, and the arts program with activities in the halls and lobby – both were very uplifting during a difficult time.”

“The Artists in Residence are great for both patients and staff alike. Whenever the harpist comes, my blood pressure drops 20 points.”

Best of all were 2 volunteers — Monica and Gary. Gary tells stories; Monica does crafts. I can only imagine the welcome distraction they provide to cancer patients. Kudos to them!

– Maragaret Pugh, Director of Infusion

“Such a beautiful experience to have this wonderful, gracious skilled musician share her talent of the harp during my chemo treatment. It lifted my spirits and gave me peace. Thank you”
– Patient Experience on 9th floor Infusion ISCI

“This is a beautiful facility. I especially love the mosaics and the artwork – I’d enjoy coming here if it weren’t to have my treatments. The drink stations are a wonderful thing. I really appreciate the cafeteria – the food is affordable and really good. Also the gift shop is fantastic. And there are the little joyful things – there was a lady writing free poetry on demand my first day here, when I got my diagnosis. I was too upset that day, but I hope to see her again and ask her for a poem.”
