The most important aspect of choosing an oncology provider is finding one that cares about you, not as a diagnosis, but as a whole person. At GenXRT, we realize that you are still the person you've always been. Cancer does not define you, and while it may be a part of your story, it's not the most important part. We realize that guiding you through the treatment process means creating a partnership with you. That partnership means that we'll offer you treatment options tailored to your unique situation, and that we'll do our best to understand the impact this process has on you. Moreover, we understand that providing high quality care isn't just our job, it's our God-given mission. Our goal is to see you healed physically, emotionally, and spiritually. It's our prayer that God uses us to accomplish that goal, and that we honor Him in the process.

Generations Radiotherapy Physician and Radiation Oncologist Named Deputy-Editor-In-Chief of New Journal of the American College of Radiation Oncology
ALABASTER, ALABAMA — 20 March 2024— Today, the American College of Radiation Oncology (ACRO), an international organization representing physicians who treat cancer with radiotherapy announced the creation of a new scientific journal and named Christopher Jahraus, MD, physician and owner of Generations Radiotherapy & Oncology PC in Alabaster, to help lead the editorial team. When asked for comment, Dr. Dwight Heron, president of ACRO said, “We are fortunate to have Dr. Jahraus as our inaugural deputy editor of Contemporary Updates: Radiotherapy, Innovations & Evidence (CURiE), the official journal of the American College of Radiation Oncology. After a vigorous national search through a highly-competitive applicant pool, Dr. Jahraus was selected by the search committee for his knowledge, commitment to evidence-based care, scientific integrity and desire to educate his colleagues nationally and internationally. We are fortunate to have Dr. Jahraus accept this momentous challenge.” Jahraus will help lead the journal along with senior editor, Dr. Jessica Schuster from the University of Wisconsin, Madison. The two editors have begun to identify individuals from a range of universities and private practices throughout the U.S. and Canada to lead teams with oversight of manuscript publication. The journal will focus on clinical cancer care, and other aspects of practice pertinent to the field of radiation oncology.Jahraus appreciates ACRO’s choosing him for this role, noting that, “ACRO recognizes the important role that community oncologists play not only in caring for patients, but in driving advances in the field far beyond our individual reach. Indeed, I hope my involvement with this outlet for up-to-the-minute cancer research brings not only useful data to my colleagues, but also a new sense of confidence in the quality of care community oncologists bring our patients every day.” He added that he is particularly proud of this accomplishment in that it carries on a familytradition of editorial work, his father being a newspaper editor and publisher. Jahraus has been in practice in Alabaster for nearly 15 years, and acquired his practice, Generations Radiotherapy & Oncology PC in 2012. Generations Radiotherapy serves patients throughout Shelby, Chilton, Bibb, and Jefferson Counties and beyond from its location adjacent to the campus of Shelby Baptist Medical Center, a part of Brookwood Baptist Health. Recent years have seen numerous advances in both the technical capabilities of the practice and in the overall quality of healthcare available to patients in this region.
