Cancer is a disease where abnormal cells begin to grow uncontrollably—destroying
healthy body tissue. This devastating condition affects nearly 2 million
Americans every year. At Shannon, our experienced oncology team delivers
trusted screenings, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation services
for our community of San Angelo and beyond.
Our Shannon Oncology Center is a state-of-the-art cancer care facility
that employs a multidisciplinary team of specialists, including oncology
physician experts, surgeons, certified oncology nurses, radiologists,
technologists, and support staff. The American College of Surgeons has
recognized our cancer program with the highest approval rating available.
In addition to our comprehensive diagnostic and treatment services, our
facility has a fully staffed pharmacy, patient education room, a spacious
waiting area, and a comfortable outpatient chemotherapy area. We understand
that a cancer diagnosis affects more than just the affected area, which
is why we also employ a licensed dietitian, dedicated patient navigator,
and a social worker for truly individualized care.
We strive to utilize the latest chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation
therapy, and surgical treatments available, including image-guided radiation
therapy, stereotactic radiotherapy, robotic-assisted surgery, respiratory
gating, and deep inspiration breath hold treatments. Your oncologist will
work with you and the rest of your medical team to create a customized
treatment plan, potentially combining methods to more accurately target
cancerous cells while trying to maintain as much healthy tissue as possible.
With accurate diagnosis being such an integral aspect of establishing the
type of treatment needed, we take pride in utilizing the most advanced
equipment and laboratory services available.
Our in-house diagnostic solutions include:
X-rays
CT scan
MRI
Comprehensive laboratory tests
Genetic and Molecular testing

At Shannon, our goal is to provide quality assistance, encouragement, and
care to patients and their families. We pair our world-class facility
with cutting-edge technologies, genuinely personalized treatment plans,
and a variety of ancillary care resources to ensure a truly comprehensive
experience. No matter the type of cancer you are facing, you can count
