Just received a diagnosis of cancer in throat and back.

Thanks
Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa is a large hospital devoted to the treatment of cancer. It's known as one of the most highly-rated cancer treatment centers in the southeast U.S. It's a 60-75 minute drive south of The Villages.

Alternatively, there is the well known MD Anderson Cancer Center in Orlando (affiliated with the nationally-known hospital of the same name in Houston) or Shands Hospital at the University of Florida in Gainesville. Moffitt, Anderson and Shands are all notable cancer research hospitals.
