Ridley-Tree Cancer Center has been designed to serve the entire region with expanded capacity and the most state-of-the-art technology found anywhere on the Central Coast. Our offices in Solvang and Lompoc, which provide patients in mid-Santa Barbara County with access to all the treatment and care that Ridley-Tree Cancer Center offers, will also bear the new name and logo.From architects and philanthropists to physicians and steel workers, it takes a village to turn a decades-long dream of a new regional Cancer Center into reality. We are grateful to our "village" – which includes our trustees, steering committee, volunteers, physicians, staff, patients and our many generous donors.Sansum Clinic and the Cancer Foundation of Santa Barbara (our fundraising partner dedicated to supporting our oncology programs and services) worked seamlessly to develop the project. Designed to blend in with the craftsman-style bungalows that surround the Oak Park neighborhood, the three-story, 54,780 square-foot medical center will bring all members of our Santa Barbara oncology team to a single, convenient location where patients can access all aspects of multi-disciplinary care including medical oncology and hematology, radiation oncology, surgical oncology, clinical research, genetic counseling, patient navigation, nutrition, social work services, resource library, wellness and community outreach.Once open, the existing building at 540 West Pueblo Street will become a half-acre Healing Garden, while the radiation oncology space in Cottage Hospital will be used by nuclear medicine, and the medical oncology department on the second floor at Sansum's Clinic at 317 West Pueblo Street will be repurposed into additional clinic space for us to grow. The Wolf Education and Training Center and six craftsman style apartments on Junipero Street will be finished by early 2018 to complete the campus.
