Capital Medical Center

SCCA Network Care Provider

When you have cancer, choosing the right place to go for treatment can be a difficult decision.

If you live in Thurston county and the surrounding area, you may prefer to stay in your community and receive cancer treatment at a hospital you know and trust. At the same time, you probably want access to the latest treatment options, including those only available in clinical studies or at a comprehensive cancer center. Now you can have both.

The network relationship between Seattle Cancer Care Alliance (SCCA) and Capital Medical Center in Olympia gives you the best of both worlds—care in your own community by skilled and dedicated oncologists, nurses, and staff, plus access to the resources of SCCA and its parent organizations.

Capital Medical Center is a multi-specialty hospital with a regional focus and a commitment to providing the highest quality healthcare and services in an atmosphere of concern and caring. Their physicians provide primary care to area residents and also draw patients from throughout the county for specialty care.
The relationship between SCCA and Capital Medical Center gives you more choices. More choices mean the end to one-size-fits-all cancer care.

• Your oncologist at Capital Medical Center may consult with SCCA oncologists about your diagnosis and treatment. 
• You may seek a second opinion from doctors at SCCA.
• If you and your doctors decide that a clinical trial is right for you, you can participate in the trial at Capital Medical Center.
• If you choose, you may ask for a referral and receive your treatment at SCCA.
• Your local doctor will remain involved in your care.
