The Tom Baker Cancer Centre, a component of a provincial program of cancer care,is a tertiary referral centre. The TBCC is the main cancer treatment, research and education facility for Southern Alberta.  Approximately 7,000 new patients are seen each year at the Centre in state-of-the-art facilities. Our team of medical oncologists treat all solid organ malignancies and work collaboratively in tumour groups to provide excellent patient care. Radiation services for southern Alberta are provided at TBCC by 21 Radiation Oncologists, and facilities include 9 linear accelerators, CT simulation, intensity modulated radiotherapy, brachytherapy, and stereotactic capabilities. The Provincial Bone Marrow Transplant program is also delivered in Calgary. Postgraduate training programs in Medical Oncology and other oncology disciplines (Radiation, Gynecological, Surgical, Hematology, and Palliative Care) are fully accredited by the RCPSC. The TBCC has a very active clinical research program, including in-house investigator lead, cooperative groups, (such as the CCTG and N.R.G. (N.S.A.B.P., R.T.O.G., G.O.G.)), and industry trials. Integration with the University of Calgary’s Arnie Charbonneau Cancer Institute enables a strong translational and basic research focus.
