UT Southwestern Medical Center Vision Statement
From Foundations to Fulfillment For cancer care in North Texas, 25–25 was a defining decade. Ten years ago the Harold C. Simmons Comprehensive Cancer Center set the loftiest of goals – to meet the community’s many and varied cancer-related needs through: Outstanding achievement in biomedical research Exceptional patient care A rich training environment for the physicians and scientists of tomorrow Aggressive outreach to provide more North Texans with life-saving prevention and early detection In just five years, the Simmons Comprehensive Cancer Center earned National Cancer Institute (NCI) designation recognizing achievement in those areas, a milestone that also has opened some of the most advanced national clinical trials to local cancer patients. And in 25, after just another five years, Simmons was awarded “comprehensive” designation from the NCI, becoming one of only three such top-tier institutions in the state, and the only one in North Texas. The designation recognizes superior cancer care and prevention programs, along with pace-setting science and technology.
