Allegheny Health Network on Friday afternoon opened its second of six cancer centers, this one in Butler.
The 34,000-square-foot, two-story facility, off Hollywood Road in the Pullman center Business Park, will allow cancer patients to get radiation and chemotherapy as well as other services locally instead of having to drive south to Pittsburgh.
About 65 people are employed at the facility, which cost $21 million to build and will open officially with its first patients Tuesday.
