Low Country Cancer Care Relocates Waycross Clinic, Continues to Provide Specialized Care for Cancer and Blood Disorders
WAYCROSS, Ga., May 22, 2024 – Community oncology practice Low Country Cancer Care, a partner practice of American Oncology Network (AON) (Nasdaq: AONC), has announced the relocation of its Waycross clinic to 1706 Alice Street, which is now open and accepting current and new patients.
The Waycross clinic is more than 5,000 square feet and has four private exam rooms for patients to meet with the physician and care team. It also includes a dedicated room with ten to twelve chairs for infusion therapies. Patients visiting the clinic will be seen by Asit Jha, MD, one of the Board-certified medical oncologists at Low Country Cancer Care.
“Our new facility has been designed with patient comfort and privacy in mind,” said Dr. Jha. “Our care approach is holistic and involves treating the whole person, not just the disease. In order to do so, we need to provide a clean, comfortable and inviting space where our patients can receive their therapies and a warm, friendly care team who are dedicated to every patient who walks into our clinic. We are excited to attend to our patients at our new facility.”
Low Country Cancer Care provides exclusive care to patients diagnosed with various types of cancer and blood disorders. Dr. Jha joined the practice in April 2022 opening the clinic in Waycross and a second location in Alma earlier this year. The practice has access to a wide array of administrative and clinical resources and support that allow it to improve patient care delivery.
“Our partner practice’s success is celebrated across our network,” said Stephen “Fred” Divers, MD, AON’s chief medical officer. “In prioritizing patient needs, practices often consider office relocation. The new facility empowers the physicians and care team to excel in providing their high-quality, health-promoting care to its patients.”
“We are dedicated to serving our patients per our Code of Ethics at each of our clinic locations, including our new Waycross one,” said Dr. Jha. “While we are now in a new location, our patients can expect limited to no disruption in our services as well as the same high-quality care they have received from us.”
