The Janet Knowles Breast Cancer Center officially opened last week on the second floor of MD Anderson Cancer Center at Cooper in Camden. A grand opening event and ribbon-cutting ceremony was held on Tuesday, May 12, 2015.
The center features a beautifully appointed waiting area just for breast cancer patients and their families; eight examination rooms, two of which include ultrasound diagnostic imaging capabilities; workspace for physicians and other clinicians; and the Boutique of Hope. In this center, patients will have access to all their breast cancer specialists in the same convenient location, creating a more seamless approach to multidisciplinary cancer care.
The Boutique of Hope is a small specialty shop that offers unique and stylish MD Anderson Cooper branded clothing, jewelry and other accessories, pampering soaps and lotions, gourmet teas, scented candles, note cards and other gift items. All items in the shop can be purchased by cash, credit card or employee payroll deduction.
The breast cancer center is dedicated in honor of Janet Knowles, a breast cancer survivor and philanthropist who made a generous donation and personal commitment to advancing Cooper’s breast cancer program.
