The Anne B. Barshinger Center is located on Lancaster General Health’s East Hempfield Township campus. This extension of the existing Cancer Center, designed by Ballinger, will open in July 2013. The Lighting Practice joined the design team in Spring of 2011. TLP was tasked with designing the exterior building, site lighting, and interior public spaces including the Meditation Pavilion and Healing Garden. We are proud to be a part of a project that will have the opportunity to bring top notch care closer to patients in the Lancaster community.

The large, circular garden and glass-walled meditation room. The patient exam rooms adjacent to cancer specialists of all kinds.
The center where you can be fitted for a wig or get a massage. The nurse navigator who helps you understand your treatment, and your options.
The high-tech machine that delivers radiation so focused on your tumor that it adjusts the beam when you breathe.
Lancaster General is in the final stretch of building a new kind of cancer center constructed to provide one-stop, focused care.
“The building was designed to meet patient care needs,” said Dr. Randall Oyer, the new center’s medical director.
The $46 million, two-story Ann B. Barshinger Center is on the south side of Lancaster General Health’s East Hempfield Township campus. Off Spring Valley Road, its sweeping roof is visible from Route 30.
Scheduled to open in early July, the 70,000-square-foot center unites treatments and expands care to patients, said Jan Bergen, executive vice president and chief operating officer for Lancaster General Health.
“It gives us the ability to provide targeted, coordinated care with all the caregivers and support staff present,” she said.
