About Us

At Florida Cancer Specialists & Research Institute, we believe our people are our strength and we invest in them. Since 1984, Florida Cancer Specialists & Research Institute (FCS) has built a national reputation for excellence. With over 250 physicians, 220 nurse practitioners and physician assistants, and nearly 100 locations in our network, we utilize innovative clinical research, cutting-edge technologies, and advanced treatments to provide world-class cancer care.

We are recognized by the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) with a national Clinical Trials Participation Award. FCS offers patients access to more clinical trials than any private oncology practice in Florida, including ground-breaking therapies in a community setting. In the past five years, the majority of new cancer drugs approved for use in the U.S. were studied in clinical trials with FCS participation prior to approval. Through our partnership with Sarah Cannon, we are one of the largest clinical research organizations in the United States.
