Find Out More About Proton Therapy for Cancer

Join us for an exclusive presentation by radiation oncologist Carl Rossi, MD and a tour of Scripps Proton Therapy Center.


Proton therapy is one of the most advanced and precise ways to treat tumors. Using a radiation beam about as thin as a pencil, proton therapy precisely targets the tumor and stops there, which means the tumor can be “erased” with minimal side effects while sparing surrounding healthy tissue.


The event will feature:


  • Presentation by Dr. Carl Rossi, medical director of Scripps Proton Therapy Center
  • Proton therapy patients sharing their experiences
  • Q&A with patient representatives
  • Tour of the facility, treatment rooms and technology
  • Complimentary appetizers and refreshments
