The Legacy
Heritage Oncology
Center and
Dr. Larry Norton
Institute

More than 15,000 cancer patients are treated
every year at Soroka. Each year, an average of
2,500 adult patients are newly diagnosed with
cancer. In recent years, there has been an increase
in diagnosis of all types of cancer, especially lung,
bladder, and breast cancer, in the southern region.

The Legacy Heritage Oncology Center and Dr. Larry
Norton Institute form a comprehensive oncology
center that provides state-of-the-art treatment
to the diverse population of our region. It houses
all treatment units under one roof and provides
patients with world-class facilities, saving lives and
greatly improving their well-being and that of their
families.

Researchers at Soroka conduct ground-breaking
research to discover better ways to prevent,
diagnose, and treat cancer.
