James
"Jimmy" Christopher Everest died in 1992 at the age of 17, after a
brave battle with Ewing sarcoma. With memorial donations made to honor
his life, his family and friends created the
Jimmy Everest Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders in Children to provide outpatient care for children and adolescents with oncologic
and hematologic disorders in Oklahoma. This center is designed to
enhance the treatment experience for every child and their family. Our
goal is to provide outstanding, personalized care.
In 2009, OU
Children’s Physicians opened a state-of-the-art ambulatory care
building; the Jimmy Everest Center relocated services to the 10
th
floor of this new facility. Our child-friendly center serves as a
referral center for children throughout Oklahoma and the region
dedicated to expert patient care, developing new knowledge to improve
care, and educate the next generation of Oklahoma’s physicians.
