Our Philosophy
At the Mercy Clinic St. Louis Cancer and Breast Institute, state-of-the-art medical treatment is combined with an integrative team approach in which the entire person is treated, not only the disease. Each week, the physicians and staff of the Institute meet to discuss a plan of care for new patients. This plan considers not just the most appropriate medical course of treatment, but the entire needs of the patient and their family — medical, psychological, social, emotional and spiritual. This model of care is grounded in patient-practitioner partnerships to achieve optimal health and healing.
Mercy Clinic St. Louis Cancer and Breast Institute physicians, professionals and support staff work together to affect positive medical results, while assisting the patient to maintain the highest quality of life possible during and after treatment. Communication, collaboration and compassion make the Mercy Clinic St. Louis Cancer and Breast Institute comprehensive and unique.
