🔔 When the Bell Rings, We All Celebrate 🔔

Earlier this month, one of our patients at the Astera Health/CentraCare– Coborn Cancer Center completed his final radiation treatment. Surrounded by his family and care team, the day was filled with relief, gratitude, and hope for the future.

Moments like these remind us why having world-class cancer care close to home matters so deeply. Patients and their loved ones shouldn’t have to travel far to receive life-changing treatment, and now, they don’t have to.
