While receiving a brain tumor diagnosis can be overwhelming, Saint Mary's Brain Tumor Center is here to provide patients with guidance, information and effective treatment on their journey back to health.

The Brain Tumor Center brings together the region's best resources for treating brain tumors in one location. Combining the facilities and expertise of Saint Mary's, the skill and knowledge of Sierra Neurosurgery Group and the technology of Reno CyberKnife, the Brain Tumor Center offers patients an incredible resource, typically associated with larger sites.

Our collaborative approach provides patients with something else they are desperate for after a brain tumor diagnosis — quick action. Newly diagnosed brain tumor patients meet simultaneously with two specialists, a neurosurgeon and a radiation oncologist, to expedite their treatment planning. The result is a shortened period between diagnosis and treatment, often as soon as two weeks.
