Becker’s Hospital Review recognizes VUMC as a top oncology provider  

Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center serves more than 49,000 distinct patients and manages over 250,000 outpatient visits annually.

Vanderbilt University Medical Center is one of two facilities in Tennessee recognized by Becker’s Hospital Review as “hospitals and health systems with great oncology programs” for 2025. 

“Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center, part of Vanderbilt University Medical Center, is the only NCI-designated comprehensive cancer center in Tennessee that provides care for both adults and children,” Becker’s Hospital Review noted. “Recognized by U.S. News & World Report as a top-performing cancer hospital, Vanderbilt-Ingram serves more than 49,000 distinct patients and manages over 250,000 outpatient visits annually. With a team of more than 200 cancer specialists and over 300 physician-scientists, the center leads in precision medicine and translational research, supported by more than $150 million in total research funding, including $69 million in competitive NCI grants.

“Vanderbilt-Ingram offers access to more than 350 clinical trials and is the developer of MyCancerGenome.org, a globally recognized resource for genetically informed cancer care. As a member of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network, Vanderbilt-Ingram helps shape national standards in cancer prevention, treatment and survivorship care.” 

The other Tennessee hospital that made the list is Memphis-based St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
