Officials and community members were filled with excitement and optimism as they celebrated the groundbreaking of the AdventHealth Cancer Pavilion on Friday, May 30, in Rome, Georgia.
“Our mission at AdventHealth is to Extend the Healing Ministry of Christ, and I cannot think of anything else in health care that more closely models Jesus’s healing ministry than the way we deliver cancer care,” said Isaac Sendros, President and CEO of AdventHealth Georgia and AdventHealth Redmond.
AdventHealth’s cancer services in Rome will be part of AdventHealth’s existing comprehensive cancer care network in Northwest Georgia and expand access to world-class cancer care into Floyd County. The 30,000 square foot medical office building will include access to whole person care through medical oncology, infusion treatment and women’s imaging services. Additionally, the center will provide a dedicated team of oncologists, nurses, cancer care navigators, pharmacists and therapists, and it will offer amenities such as genetic screening for cancer, classes in diet and nutrition, financial education, emotional health and well-being, survivorship programs, oncology rehab, support groups, access to clinical trials, and other services dedicated to caring for the whole person.
Sendros added, “AdventHealth’s commitment to Northwest Georgia is to grow our cancer care services across this market so that when people face cancer, they have access to a world class cancer care team that fights alongside them.”
“Now more than ever, it is critical for our community to know they have a choice for their health care services,” said Sendros, “and it is our honor to continue to provide an outstanding experience for the people who choose us for their care.”
The new medical pavilion is scheduled to open in Summer 2026.
AdventHealth offers the broadest-reaching health care network in Northwest Georgia, providing services across 10 counties. AdventHealth also provides services at AdventHealth Gordon in Calhoun and AdventHealth Murray in Chatsworth, as well as more than 40 physician practices and outpatient locations across the region and is continually expanding to address the health needs of our communities.
