Why Choose the Leavey Cancer Center?
The Leavey Cancer Center has earned an esteemed accreditation from the Association of Community Cancer Centers (ACCC).
We’ve taken the lead as the first and only facility in the San Fernando Valley to offer two of the most cutting-edge pieces of medical equipment available: da Vinci® Xi Robotic Surgery System, and Trilogy Stereotactic Radiation Therapy. These treatments result in faster, more precise diagnoses, shorter hospital stays and quicker recoveries.
da Vinci Xi Robotic Surgical System
Minimally invasive da Vinci Xi Robotic Surgery allows physicians to perform prostatectomy, hysterectomy and other urological and gynecological procedures through incisions the size of a dime, or just one small incision. Patient advantages include a shorter hospitalization, reduced pain, less scarring and a faster recovery. Learn More.
