Welcome to the Shirley & Jim Fielding Northeast Cancer Centre

The Shirley & Jim Fielding Northeast Cancer Centre (Cancer Centre) of Health Sciences North (HSN) is one of fourteen regional cancer programs in Ontario. The Cancer Centre is an Ontario Health - Cancer Care Ontario (OH-CCO) partner which serves a population of more than 600,000 in Northeastern Ontario.

The Cancer Centre currently receives over 3000 new cancer patients each year, and conducts approximately 17,000 chemotherapy visits and 38,000 radiation therapy visits, saving Northern Ontario residents afflicted with cancer and their families the cost and inconvenience of traveling to Southern Ontario for treatment. We also support partnerships between twelve community hospital sites in the Northeast in the provision of specialized cancer care services ordered by the Cancer Centre of HSN. The Cancer Centre strives to keep care close to home and offers a variety of options for interaction with the care team including virtual home-based appointments.

At the Shirley & Jim Fielding Northeast Cancer Centre, we have a team of world-renowned oncologists, scientists and researchers who work on a variety of research and clinical trials that regularly attract the attention of the international medical community.

 

 

 

 

Shaped by hundreds of voices from across Northeastern Ontario, we are proud to share the 2025–2028 North East Regional Cancer Plan. This plan reflects the vast geography, deep diversity, and unique strengths of our region, while also aligning with Ontario’s shared priorities of equity, integration, innovation, and accountability..


It lays out a clear path forward by bringing together Indigenous and Francophone partners, Ontario Health Teams, hospitals, and communities to co-design solutions that are grounded in local realities, connected across the system, and focused on fairness in care.


From remote First Nations to urban cancer centres, and from Indigenous knowledge to advanced clinical innovation, we are united by one commitment: equitable, culturally safe, world-class cancer care close to home.


In partnership with Indigenous, Francophone, rural, and equity-deserving communities, we provide timely, respectful, our mission is focused on effective care for every person, wherever they live.
