Tennessee Cancer Specialists, formed in 2004 through a merger between two well-regarded, Knoxville-based oncology groups—Cancer Care of East Tennessee and East Tennessee Oncology Hematology. We have become the premier group in East Tennessee and proudly rank as the third largest group in the state. Our practice has grown to 14 physicians, and we offer services at 12 locations in the area. Although growing and serving nearly every hospital in the region, our specialists continue to maintain focus on quality care for our patients and their families. Our mission is to provide the highest quality, compassionate care, to meet the unique needs of patients with cancer, and to assist them and their families to focus on recovery. We see each day as a chance to make our mission a reality and each patient as an opportunity to make a positive difference. Our practice is certified through the QOPI Certification Program (QCP™), an affiliate of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO).
