Emergency Department

Western Manitoba Cancer Centre (WMCC)

300 McTavish Avenue East, Brandon, MB | 204-578-2222

WMCC is a one story building located East of Brandon Regional Health Center, on the corner of Frederick Street and McTavish Avenue East.

The WMCC, located in Brandon, MB, opened its doors in July 2011 as a joint venture with Cancer Care Manitoba and Prairie Mountain Health. WMCC is the only Cancer treatment center located outside of Winnipeg that provides radiation therapy treatments and chemotherapy services, and houses the only above ground Radiation treatment unit in the province. Most cases can be treated at WMCC, but there may be some, which require more specialized treatment at CancerCare Manitoba in Winnipeg.

Additional Health Care provider services available at WMCC include Radiation Oncologists, Family Physicians in Oncology (FPO), Dietitian, Social Work, Pharmacist and Nurse Navigator.

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials (research studies) assist in answering scientific questions regarding ways to prevent, treat, and/or manage diseases including cancer. Once a clinical trial has proven to be effective in the lab and on animals the clinical trial moves on to volunteer participants to evaluate whether or not the promising treatment is safe and effective in humans.

The conduct of clinical trials leads to new standard of care treatments for all diseases including cancer. Standard of care treatments currently in place are there because research has proven that they are the best known treatments at this time.

Here at the WMCC we are able to offer patients a limited number of clinical trials. Additional trial participation options exist within Manitoba and Canada and a complete listing of these trials can be found at: http://www.canadiancancertrials.ca/
