The Inova Children's Cancer Program is a highly respected program with a celebrated reputation for meeting the unique needs of young cancer patients and their families.
Our pediatric cancer experts work in tandem with Inova Schar Cancer Institute, one of the nation’s top 50 cancer programs, and are actively involved in clinical protocols for pediatric cancer research.
Our state-of-the-art 22-bed pediatric hematology/oncology unit was designed with a positive-pressure ventilated, protective-care environment. The unit is dedicated solely to the compassionate and advanced care of children with suppressed immune systems and other complications resulting from cancer or its treatment. The Inova Children's Cancer Program has several cancer-specific programs, including special care for childhood leukemia, neurological cancers, Hodgkin's lymphoma and renal tumors.
