We were delighted to be a part of Wilmot Cancer Institute’s (WCI) special day on March 19th, 2025, when it was announced that they received the prestigious National Cancer Institute (NCI) certification. Our President, Karen Hermance, was asked to speak at the ceremony for this announcement as a community representative and share what this designation means to us as long-standing supporters of WCI.
We are truly honored to be a Wilmot community partner and proud of the work that they’re doing as the only NCI-designated facility for cancer care in New York State outside of New York City. This distinction places Wilmot in the top 4% of cancer centers in the United States, and allows the Center to offer even more ground-breaking cancer treatments and care for the people of our region.
