Health Care

Cayuga Medical Center supplies our community with topflight diagnostic and treatment
services, including a new, world-class radiation oncology center. Convenient Care Campuses provide outpatient surgical services and two VA Clinics. Affiliated with 23 academic centers, including Cornell’s Weill Medical College, Cayuga Medical Center is investing in a comprehensive package of expansions and upgrades in an ongoing transformation from a community hospital to a state-of the-art regional medical facility.

Ithaca also enjoys a large representation of alternative medicine practitioners, a new fitness and rehabilitation center, a school of massage, even a nearby chiropractic college.

With three fitness centers and dozens of classes in yoga, t’ai chi, pilates, and African, tap, and belly dance (to name only a few), there’s no excuse not to keep fit!

“Health care is impressive thanks to Cayuga Medical Center and its innovative partnerships with world-class health care institutions. The center has relationships providing patient care and diagnostic services with Roswell Park Cancer Institute in Buffalo; Mayo Medical Laboratories in Minneapolis (to which specimens are sent by courier, making more than 2,000 diagnostic tests available to Tompkins County residents); Rochester Heart Institute, an affiliate of the Cleveland Clinic and one of the country’s finest cardiac care centers, which like Roswell Park offers a telemedicine link to Cayuga Medical.”
