Why One Location Matters: How Our Centralized Cancer Center Delivers Better, More Coordinated Care
A cancer diagnosis can turn your world upside down. Between appointments, treatments, tests and specialized visits, navigating care can be overwhelming, especially when that care is scattered across care teams and locations. At HaysMed, we designed the Dreiling/Schmidt Cancer Institute with a single goal in mind: to bring everything together under one roof, to simplify care and better support healing.
By offering centralized, comprehensive cancer care in one oncology center, we’re making a powerful difference for patients and families across western Kansas. Our on-site infusion bays, laboratory, radiology suite, clinical trials, pharmacy and support services allow patients to receive timely, comprehensive treatment without unnecessary travel or stress.
Centralized Care Means Better Communication and Better Outcomes
At HaysMed, coordinated care leads to better experiences and better results. When your oncologist, radiologist, surgeon, and whole care team are all in one convenient location, communication becomes faster, clearer and more effective.
Our providers collaborate daily to create personalized care plans that are responsive, efficient, and tailored to each patient’s unique needs. And with the support of our skilled general surgery team, HaysMed offers a truly comprehensive approach to care, which means less waiting, less uncertainty, and more confidence, especially during challenging times.
Fewer Appointments, Less Travel, More Support
Coordinated care improves outcomes and patient experience for those undergoing treatment. At the Dreiling/Schmidt Cancer Institute at HaysMed, patients can access chemotherapy, radiation therapy, laboratory work, imaging—including PET scans, and consultations—all in one location, with access to expert specialists including pathologists and interventional radiologists. This convenience allows them to focus on healing rather than the stress of managing multiple appointments and travel planning, providing a sense of relief.
Expert Care, Close to Home
Our experienced, board-certified oncology team takes an all-encompassing approach to cancer treatment. We work closely with each patient to build a plan that feels clinically thorough and deeply personalized. At every step, we provide expert guidance, emotional reassurance and hope, making you feel valued and understood.
Whether you’re navigating chemotherapy, radiation, clinical trials or follow-up care, our team is here to make the process as clear and comfortable as possible, working to improve quality of life while providing world-class treatment.
One Team. One Location. One Focus: You.
Cancer care shouldn’t feel fragmented or confusing. That’s why we strive to deliver an experience that brings everything together for greater simplicity, support and peace of mind. When cancer care happens in one place, patients and their families can expect:

Our approach is built around you, your needs, your goals and your journey.
