From the moment you learn that you have breast cancer, life suddenly turns into a big “What if?” You wonder if you’ll lose your hair. Your breast. Or maybe even your life.

At Mills Breast Cancer Institute, we are committed to turning questions about your future into answers of hope.

In this innovative institute, located at Carle Clinic’s main campus in Urbana, doctors and scientists work together to provide the best possible outcome for patients. You’ll not only find the latest treatments and technology, but also a team of academic and physician researchers studying new ways to diagnose, prevent, treat and cure breast cancer. And in summer of 2008, we opened the doors on a new, state-of-the-art facility that has been designed and built with patients and their families in mind.

We may not yet have all the answers. But we plan to get there – one breakthrough at a time.
