Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center

Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center, the District of Columbia’s only NCI-Designated Comprehensive Cancer Center, was first awarded its NCI designation in 1970. Guided by the principle of cura personalis, “care for the whole person,” Georgetown Lombardi links scientific discovery, expert, and compassionate patient care, quality education, and partnership with the community.

Georgetown Lombardi is an NCI-recognized research consortium with John Theurer Cancer Center Exit Disclaimer at Hackensack University Medical Center in Bergen County, NJ, and is the research engine for the MedStar Georgetown Cancer Institute at clinical entities across the Baltimore/Washington, DC, region.
