The new center will occupy the former Family Video at 1504
W. State St., and is a collaboration with UR Medicine’s Wilmot Cancer
Institute. The 6,000 square-foot center is larger than Dr. Soni’s current
oncology clinic and it will include five exam rooms and 10 infusion chairs, as
well as an educational area with computers for patients.
Since joining the Wilmot Cancer Institute in 2019, Dr. Soni
has also been seeing patients in Wellsville at Jones Memorial Hospital’s
infusion center, which has increased access to these services in Allegany
County.
“It’s all about keeping health care local for both of these
communities,” said Eva Benedict, CEO at Jones Memorial. “By bringing quality
cancer care close to home, patients who were driving to Buffalo and Rochester
for treatment will have a shorter drive for their care.”
The center is expected to open in June.
