Capital Medical Breaks Ground on Radiation Therapy Center

Capital Medical Center broke ground on its new Radiation Therapy Center in Olympia, Wash., in summer of 2007. Slated for completion in early 2008, the facility features Elekta Synergy, an advanced radiation treatment system with 3D imagery guidance technology. Capital Medical Center recently opened Capital Oncology, a full-service oncology and hematology clinic, as part of an effort to create a world-class cancer center in southwest Washington. Capital Medical has also created a new affiliation with Seattle Cancer Care Alliance, the only federally designated comprehensive cancer center in the Northwest, which unites Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, UW Medicine, and Children’s Hospital and Regional Medical Center. Capital Medical Center is owned by Tennessee-based Capella Healthcare.
