Physicians and administrators at North Florida Regional Medical Center showed off their newly-constructed Cancer Center Wednesday with tours and a ribbon-cutting. The facility will open to the public on Monday.

Located behind the Medical Arts Building on the east side of the NFRMC campus, the 35,000-square-foot center will offer a complete range of cancer therapies.

It was built at a cost of about $18.5 million, including the equipment, according to Matt Davis, the chief operating officer.

The first phase of the Cancer Center includes outpatient radiation oncology services and the Cyberknife system that delivers targeted radiation to tumors previously considered untreatable, according to Dr. Mark Perman.
