World-Class Cancer Care
In Your Community
As you or a loved one fight the unimaginable, we are right by your side, and right next door. Mission is a community-based healthcare team of cancer and blood specialists ready to provide you with the best possible care and treatment options for your needs.
Since 1981, we’ve been quietly serving those with cancer and blood disorders in all of central Iowa’s major medical facilities. The level of cancer care we provide — with evidence-based treatments, tumor boards, genetic counseling, and clinical trials — matches or exceeds the care available in any community oncology practice anywhere in the country.
Cancer Care. For Life.
Overcoming Is Underway
First set of UI Health Care and Mission Cancer + Blood joint clinical trials opened this summer
University of Iowa Health Care and Mission Cancer + Blood joined forces in Dec. 2024, with the shared vision of providing more Iowans with access to high-quality cancer care and clinical trials, closer to home. Now, less than a year later, the organizations have launched a joint clinical trial program, marking a major milestone toward bringing this vision to life.
Opened jointly in August 2025, the first two trials at both UI Health Care and Mission are interventional treatment trials of innovative medicines for patients with large-cell lymphoma. Each month, the portfolio of joint studies will expand for patient enrollment across Iowa. There are at least seven trials being prepared to open jointly in the coming months. Read More.

Beginning June 2, 2025 you will see a change in our medical records platform. We are converting some of our Mission Cancer + Blood locations and patient records to the EPIC system currently used by UI Health Care.
We have recently transitioned to a new electronic health record system. While we work through these new processes, you may experience longer-than-expected wait times at your appointments or on the phone. Thank you for your patience as we adjust to a new system and thank you for trusting us with your care.
