About Smilow

A legacy of hope,
rooted in Hartford.

Smilow Cancer Hospital at Saint Francis Hospital has been a cornerstone of cancer care in Connecticut for more than three decades. Named in honor of the Smilow family's generous commitment to oncology research and patient care, our center brings together the latest in cancer treatment with the deep human connections that make Hartford feel like home.

We are fully accredited by the Commission on Cancer and the American College of Surgeons, and we participate in the National Cancer Institute–designated clinical trials network — meaning our patients have access to cutting-edge therapies right here in their own community, without having to travel far from family.
