## TL;DR

The New York Proton Center is a free-standing proton beam therapy centre in Manhattan treating solid tumours, bookable through an oncology referral.

## Summary

The New York Proton Center delivers proton beam radiotherapy for solid tumours in adults and children, a form of radiation that stops at a set depth and spares tissue beyond the target. Its own site says it was created through a partnership with three academic medical centres, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Montefiore and Mount Sinai, and is the first and only proton therapy centre in New York; Charles Simone is its chief medical officer. Future of Cancer Care Today lists it as patient-bookable through oncology referral.
