Locations and Parking

The pediatric hematology/oncology clinic is located on the first floor of the NC Cancer Hospital. Our clinic provides a friendly atmosphere that is appropriate and comfortable for young patients of all ages. Unless using valet or disability parking, patients and visitors should plan to park in the Dogwood Parking Deck.

Drop-off & Parking

Patients can be dropped off at the door of the NC Cancer Hospital. The driveway to do so is accessed by turning north onto Hospital Drive from Manning Drive, the street in front of the hospital complex. [Google Maps]
