Kaiser Permanente Partnership
The City of Hope Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Program and Southern California Kaiser Permanente Medical Center developed a partnership in 1998 to offer marrow and stem cell transplantation services to Kaiser Permanente health plan members.

Since then, all Kaiser Permanente patients needing transplant have had their procedures performed at City of Hope. Kaiser Permanente members now have access to a wider variety of treatment programs, including new therapeutic approaches designed to improve outcomes and cure rates.

Several physicians from the Kaiser Permanente bone marrow transplant medical group are now members of the City of Hope HCT program, and work side-by-side with City of Hope staff. These physicians are responsible for all Kaiser patients under one unified program of patient care.

Tower Cancer Research Foundation Partnership
City of Hope, through an affiliation with the prestigious Tower Cancer Research Foundation (TCRF), now brings clinical trials for cancer treatment to Los Angeles' Westside communities.
Many important factors influence cancer treatment decisions, but location should not be one of them. Westside residents have access to City of Hope's innovative clinical trials at TCRF's Beverly Hills, Calif., location. There, they can undergo advanced treatment options, while remaining closer to home and the routines of daily life.

For information, contact City of Hope at 800-826-HOPE (4673) or TCRF at 310-289-2840.
