Pediatric Cancer Care

To better serve you and your family, this May, pediatric services at the Masonic Cancer Clinic will move from the current site on the University of Minnesota East Bank (formerly referred to as “University”) to a new location on the West Bank (formerly “Riverside”). Our new clinic space will be located at 2450 Riverside Avenue, in the Riverside East Building in the new Journey Clinic: Center for Children with Cancer and Blood Diseases. The new clinic offers a patient- and family-centered care environment that complements the new University of Minnesota Amplatz Children’s Hospital, opening Saturday, April 30.

Watch for more detailed information about the move at your upcoming appointments and in the mail, or ask a clinic staff member.
