The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center

The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center ranks as one of the world’s most respected comprehensive centers, with 246,000 people having been treated there since it opened in 1944. Cure is the ultimate goal of all patient care efforts at Anderson. When the Center first opened, less than one in four cancer patients could hope for a cure; today, the five-year survival rate for patients with all forms of cancer is more than 50 percent. Some 1,700 outpatient visits occur daily, eliminating the expense and confinement of a hospital stay.
