Groundbreaking Development for Cancer Patients in Connecticut

In a groundbreaking development that stands to transform the delivery of cancer care in Connecticut, the Hartford HealthCare Cancer Institute at St. Vincent’s Medical Center has been designated as the first Care Partner of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) in the United States.
