A team of oncologists and specialists work together to create a comprehensive and personalized plan focused on achieving the best possible outcome. The Hall-Perrine Cancer Center has been leading the fight against cancer with compassion, hope and the latest advancements for more than 50 years. As the area's pioneer in treating cancers, Hall-Perrine was the first American College of Surgeons (ACoS) Commission on Cancer accredited cancer site in the area, re-accredited in 2011. We serve thousands of cancer patients each year – each one with a special, unique story that we treat with genuine warmth, compassion and understanding. In 2012, we will open a new center at Mercy Medical Center in Cedar Rapids. The facility is designed for and with input from cancer patients, but it's the innovative and nationally recognized care within that makes it truly world-class. Our expert physicians and compassionate, oncology-dedicated staff work together to provide a comprehensive experience to patients and their families.

New data shows colorectal cancer is now the leading cause of cancer deaths among younger adults. That’s one reason screening matters. Colonoscopy remains the gold standard for identifying and removing potentially cancerous polyps before they become a problem.

In this two-part series, Nathalie Pena Polanco, MD explains why screening is important and walks through what you can expect during a colonoscopy.

One Year. Countless Stories of Strength.

We’re celebrating the one-year anniversary of the Breast Survivorship Program at Hall-Perrine Cancer Center — a program designed to support patients not just through treatment, but beyond it.

Survivorship is more than a milestone. It’s navigating side effects, rebuilding strength, managing “chemo fog,” improving nutrition, restoring independence, and embracing a new normal. Over the past year, our dedicated breast survivorship team has provided personalized care plans, treatment summaries, wellness guidance, and referrals to supportive services like occupational therapy, physical therapy, acupuncture, nutrition counseling, and support groups.

Because finishing treatment isn’t the end of the journey — it’s the start of a new chapter.

If you or a loved one has completed cancer treatment, talk with your oncologist to see if a survivorship visit could benefit you. We’re honored to walk alongside you every step of the way.

Here’s to one year of survivorship — and many more to come.

Standing tall outside the Hall-Perrine Cancer Center, Arc of Peace is more than a sculpture — it’s a symbol of the journey so many walk with courage each day.
Its long legs remind us to rise above life’s challenges. The origami cranes arching overhead represent hope for the future and peace within us, while their different colors honor the many cancer journeys they represent.
Whether glowing against the night sky or welcoming you in the light of day, this piece is our way of saying: you’ve entered a place of hope, healing and peace.

Today is World Cancer Day — and we are .
Every cancer diagnosis tells a different story. Behind every patient is a person experiencing their own journey filled with hope, fear, resilience, love and strength. Cancer is more than a diagnosis — it’s deeply personal, and the best care recognizes each individual’s unique needs.

At Hall-Perrine Cancer Center, that belief is at the heart of how we care for patients. This World Cancer Day, we stand united in recognizing that every patient’s story matters. By seeing the person before the patient, we can deliver compassionate, comprehensive care and create better outcomes for our community.

Join us in honoring survivors, supporting those currently in treatment, and remembering loved ones.

New Prostate Cancer Care - No Incisions & Faster Recovery.
Mercy Medical Center now offers focal therapy for localized prostate cancer using Sonablate® high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) — a non-invasive treatment option that targets cancer while helping preserve quality of life. Led by Mercy urologist Matthew Ferroni, MD, this innovative approach uses focused sound waves to destroy only the cancerous tissue — no incisions, faster recovery, and fewer potential side effects compared to traditional surgery or radiation. “This technology allows us to treat prostate cancer with precision while helping patients return to normal activities sooner,” says Dr. Ferroni. This latest advancement reflects Mercy’s continued commitment to delivering cutting-edge, patient-centered care to our community. Learn more at mercycare.org/prostate

We honor the life of Ellie Beaty, beloved mother of Sandy Knight, whose legacy lives on through the Especially for You Race Against Breast Cancer. Ellie, passed peacefully on New Year’s Day at the age of 94 and we pause with gratitude for a life that helped shape so much hope.
Ellie’s quiet strength and support helped nurture a family whose compassion has changed countless lives. As we remember Ellie, we also celebrate the enduring impact of Sandy’s wish, a community coming together so that more women have access to early detection, care, and hope.
For many years, Ellie & Billy stood together at the heart of this race, cheering on walkers and runners and embodying the compassion and hope that define Especially for You.
Her daughter Cindy Young continues that legacy today, working in the Especially for You office and helping carry forward the mission Sandy envisioned. Our hearts are with Cindy and all who loved Ellie.

Ellie will always be part of the Especially for You family.
