The partnership is designed to expand Cancer care for patients in the Big Bend region. Both TMH and UF & Shands will now share their expertise to help improve patient care.

The affiliation also provides better coordination and communication between medical teams if a patient needed to travel from TMH to Gainesville for special treatment.
