In 2016, Siteman and St. Louis Children’s Hospital established Siteman Kids at St. Louis Children’s Hospital, focused on younger patients and their families. The partnership is focused on caring for children and adolescents with cancer, using the latest, most effective treatments, in a setting that’s specifically geared to younger patients and their families.

The two institutions share use of the S. Lee Kling Proton Therapy Center – the only one in 300 miles to offer this precise form of radiation that targets tumors while sparing surrounding healthy tissues.
