In 2026, we proudly mark the 20th anniversary of the UF Health Proton Therapy Institute—a milestone that reflects two decades of innovation, compassion and progress in cancer care. We invite you to join us in honoring this moment through a dedicated anniversary landing page that celebrates both the advances we’ve made and the extraordinary courage of the patients who have entrusted us with their care.
Throughout the year, we will also share information about special events designed to celebrate the community we are part of and to raise critical funds that support ongoing research and the continued advancement of cancer treatment.
As you read on, you’ll discover the story of where we began and how far we’ve come. Since opening our doors, we have treated more than 12,000 patients, contributed to the scientific community through numerous published studies and become an integral part of the UF Health NCI-Designated Cancer system.
Thank you for being part of this journey and for your continued support.
