Ackerman Cancer Center

Ackerman Cancer Center is a radiation oncology practice offering conventional radiation therapy and proton therapy, along with stereotactic treatments such as SBRT and SRS. Its board-certified radiation oncologists use proton beam technology to target tumors while limiting exposure to nearby healthy tissue, and the center also offers low-dose radiation for osteoarthritis pain. Breast cancer screening, including contrast-enhanced mammography, is available as well.

The Amelia Island office is on South 18th Street, with other locations in Macclenny, Jacksonville and St. Augustine. Financial coordinators and oncology social workers help patients with insurance questions, cost planning and foundation support. The center accepts 99 percent of insurance plans, and financing is available. Referring physicians can send patients directly to the team.
