This is where our patients and families live, work and play. This is a community that has embraced our hospital and we strive to say thanks by giving back. As a leader in children’s health, we engage in meaningful programs and partnerships throughout the region so that we can improve the lives of children beyond the walls of our hospital.</p>\n<h2>Overview</h2>\n<p>The Division of Hematology/Oncology/Bone Marrow Transplantation at Children’s Mercy Kansas City is seeking a full-time BE/BC Pediatric Hematologist/Oncologist to join our Oncology Team with a focus in the care of children and adolescents with hematologic malignancies.</p>\n<p> </p>\n<p>The Children’s Mercy Kansas City Cancer Center cares for approximately 200 newly diagnosed patients with cancer per year.
