Dartmouth Cancer Center (DCC) is an NCI-Designated Comprehensive Cancer Center and the only one based in northern New England. The DCC is integrated with Dartmouth Health and the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth College. That means academic rigor, cutting-edge science, and community reach in one ecosystem. Patients here benefit from research-driven care and access to clinical trials; care at NCI-designated centers has been associated with up to a 25% improvement in long-term survival.
In June 2025 the National Cancer Institute (NCI) renewed DCC’s Comprehensive designation through 2029, underscoring program depth, scientific leadership, and regional impact. We are one of 57 such centers nationally to achieve this elite designation.

Why are we so unique? We are a nationally recognized Academic Medical Center set right in the middle of the White Mountains of New Hampshire. We recognize that “quality of life” means different things to different people, but we are very confident you will love it here as we have beautiful, rural and suburban housing options, world-class primary, secondary, and graduate schools, hundreds of lakes, thousands of miles of hiking trails and some of the best skiing in the country. This all means you can be a happy nurse with more quality time with friends, family, pets or maybe just quiet hikes by yourself. Our idea of traffic in the “Upper Valley” of New Hampshire is a line on the ski mountain at the chair lift.
