The California Kidney Cancer Center
The California Kidney Cancer Center was founded to make new and advanced forms of therapy for kidney cancer readily available throughout Northern California.

The Center combines a multidisciplinary approach to patient care with clinical research using new forms of immunotherapy not available in most hospitals. Both standard cancer therapy and clinical research protocols are available for patients.
