CARTI has completed its $19 million cancer center in El Dorado. Patients, physicians, government officials, and community supporters joined the not-for-profit cancer care provider to recognize its expansion, which brings full-time breast care, advanced imaging, radiation therapy and, in January 2026, urologic services to the region.
In 2021, the not-for-profit provider opened the CARTI Cancer Center El Dorado at 1601 North West Avenue, offering medical oncology and PET imaging services. Last year, with support from Governor Sarah Sanders, former Speaker Matthew Shepherd, Senate President Pro Temp Bart Hester, and members of the Arkansas General Assembly, CARTI secured $7 million in funding through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) to complete Phase II of the facility.
