The MPRI Experience
"Proton therapy was the light at the end of the tunnel."
—Phil Thompson, MPRI patient and prostate cancer survivor
A highly precise cancer treatment.
A facility that gives patients precisely the care they need.
At MPRI, we aim at cancer cells with pinpoint-accurate proton beams. And we aim to make the treatment experience as comfortable as possible.
As the first proton therapy center in the Heartland, MPRI is dedicated to bringing this pioneering cancer treatment to patients across the Midwest and around the world. We're also committed to serving patients with challenging conditions who may not be helped by other treatments. And we're dedicated to maintaining a patient load that makes it possible for our staff to give every patient the personal, one-on-one attention he or she deserves.
It's not just the MPRI staff that make our patients feel at home. Our state-of-the-art facility is warm and welcoming. And our Heartland location combines proximity to a major university with small-town charm and a friendly atmosphere. In addition, MPRI is affiliated with Clarian Health, the largest health system in Indiana, and its Indiana University Melvin and Bren Simon Cancer Center, the only National Cancer Institute-designated cancer center in Indiana providing patient care.
