HealthPartners Frauenshuh Cancer Center

Award-winning cancer center in St. Louis Park

A cancer diagnosis can feel overwhelming. At HealthPartners Frauenshuh Cancer Center, we’re here to guide you from your first appointment through treatment and recovery with award-winning cancer care, the newest treatment options and support for you and your family. Frauenshuh Cancer Center was designed using extensive input from our patients and care teams to create a place where all of your treatments are in one location, including access to advanced clinical trials.

This innovative approach to treating cancer, called the non-moving patient care model, means your care comes directly to you in the privacy of your treatment room. This makes it possible for you to get the high-quality care you deserve without having to rush between different locations for your cancer treatment. Our multi-purpose rooms can be used for doctor visits, chemotherapy, integrative therapies and other services.

At HealthPartners Frauenshuh Cancer Center, we’ll help you find answers and get the unique treatment you need during every step of your recovery. We take a multidisciplinary approach to cancer treatment. This means that our team of specialists, including medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, hematologists and surgeons, works together to treat the physical and emotional effects of cancer. We also have genetic counselors, dietitians and social workers available to provide social services as needed.

Cancer research and clinical trials

Our doctors are passionate about using scientific advances to improve the lives of our patients. That’s why we created the Cancer Research Center to further our understanding of cancer care. We’re involved in early phase, phase 1, 2 and 3 clinical trials studying the full spectrum of cancer care, including the newest treatments.

Our Cancer Research Center at the HealthPartners Institute gives our patients access to groundbreaking research and clinical trials. We’ll answer your questions and help guide you toward on-going trials that might be a good fit for you.

Our history

HealthPartners and Park Nicollet have been leading the way in innovative cancer care, giving patients access to coordinated cancer care services since 1964. After years of outstanding care, growth and education, we opened the HealthPartners Frauenshuh Cancer Center in 2009.

The center is named for David and Sandra Frauenshuh, who were the lead donors of our facility. Their family is active in developing supportive environments for patients and their loved ones, and they wanted to create a place where everyone’s experience is focused on quality of life. Today, HealthPartners Frauenshuh Cancer Center works to improve lives in every way possible – medically, emotionally and spiritually.
