More than 150 community members, physicians, patients and local leaders recently gathered to celebrate the grand opening of City of Hope Cancer Center Prescott, marking an important milestone in expanding access to specialized cancer care across Northern Arizona.

The evening featured a ceremonial ribbon cutting led by City of Hope Arizona President Laurie Sicaeros alongside physicians Alan H. Bryce, Aleksandar Sekulic, Donn Marshall Davis, Allan V. Espinosa-Morazan, Iyad Hamarneh and Alan Langerak, celebrating expanded access to advanced, comprehensive cancer care for Prescott-area patients and families.

Located at 5430 Landmark Lane, the new cancer center connects patients to one of the nation's largest cancer research and treatment networks, providing access to nationally recognized expertise, personalized treatment plans and innovative therapies while allowing patients to remain close to the support systems they know and trust.

The celebration reflected City of Hope's ongoing commitment to serving Northern Arizona through compassionate, patient-centered care and groundbreaking cancer research.
