About the ECCC

The Edwards Comprehensive Cancer Center is jointly directed by Cabell Huntington Hospital, the Edwards Foundation, Inc. and the Joan C. Edwards School of Medicine at Marshall University. The three-story, 70,000 square-foot facility opened in January 2006. Within the Edwards Comprehensive Cancer Center is the James F. Edwards Adult Cancer Clinic, which includes an adult oncology center with infusion stations, exam rooms, consultation rooms, minor procedure rooms, a diagnostic breast center and physician offices, and the Joan C. Edwards Children's Cancer Clinic, which includes the children's oncology/hematology treatment center with infusion stations, pediatric oncology clinics and physician offices. The Children's Clinic is designed to create a child-friendly environment combining light, color and children's motifs.

Edwards School of Medicine. "The sequencing, continuity and comprehensive care administered at our center is not available anywhere else within a 100-mile radius of Huntington."
