St. Jude Heritage Medical Group Recognized for Exceptional Cancer Care

St. Jude Heritage Medical Group oncologists and hematologists at the Virginia K. Crosson Cancer Center are among the first in the nation to be recognized by the Quality Oncology Practice Initiative (QOPI) Certification Program, an affiliate of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). The QOPI Certification Program is a new initiative to certify oncology practices that meet rigorous standards for high-quality cancer care.

Introducing: the new Yorba Linda Medical Office

On May 23, St. Jude Heritage Medical Group patients began walking into one of Southern California’s most innovative and advanced medical offices. Located at 4300 Rose Drive, Yorba Linda, the beautifully designed medical office has replaced the former site on Prospect Avenue.

“This new building allows patient comfort and convenience to take center stage,” explains Michael Sugarman, M.D., President of St. Jude Heritage Medical Group. “From eliminating waiting rooms to offering ‘one-stop’ convenience for a wide range of health needs, every element of this facility is designed to improve how we care for our patients.”

After the move, physician and staff phone numbers will remain the same and advanced information technologies will make the transfer of patient records and information seamless.

Features of the new medical office include:

Primary and specialty care—from pediatrics to gastroenterology—are all together under one roof.
State-of-the-art imaging—including the newest generation MRI and CT as well as digital mammography—are just down the hall.
An innovative design ensures the patient’s entire appointment—from check-in to doctor’s visit to lab tests—takes place in one comfortable exam room.
Extended hours and same-day appointments offer convenience and peace of mind.
Green elements allow St. Jude Heritage to be a responsible neighbor and a community leader in reducing the impact on the environment.
An easy-to-navigate layout and ample parking make visiting the doctor easier and less stressful.

SJHMG doctors and staff invested hundreds of hours in helping design almost every detail of the new 88,000 square foot building. “This medical office defies convention and allows us to provide care in a whole new way,” explains Dr. Sugarman. “With the opening of this facility, St. Jude Heritage becomes a true leader in redefining what outpatient care can and should look like.”
