DETROIT, Jan. 27, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute, Michigan's largest cancer care and research network, is pleased to announce the launch of the newly redesigned www.karmanos.org website, built on Centralpoint by Oxcyon. The dynamic new website features easy-to-use navigation and a modular design to provide an enhanced user experience on desktop, tablet and mobile.
"Our commitment to outstanding patient services extends to every facet of our organization, including our digital platforms," said Justin Klamerus, M.D., MMM, president of Karmanos Cancer Hospital & Network. "The launch of this new site simplifies the patient experience whether they are researching services or requesting appointments. Patients and referring providers can now easily find information about their chosen location. We hope that our community will enjoy the new site and utilize its updated features."
The new karmanos.org allows users to flow from section to section with an updated interconnected navigation. Each cancer type features a landing page that is interlinked with a Karmanos Multidisciplinary Team. Users will also be able to identify specialists who are experts in each disease type.
Additionally, the website includes a designated landing page for each Karmanos Cancer Network location across the state. These pages detail the resources, service and providers available at each location.

The Karmanos website was designed to integrate and streamline information from McLaren.org, which serves as the central web presence for McLaren Health Care. Stakeholders from across the Karmanos Network have collaborated on this year-long project to produce an outstanding product.
