We have a large number of surgical oncologists, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, researchers and supportive care providers on our team, and each one focuses on treating a specific type of cancer. Because of our broad patient base, our specialists have experience in treating rare conditions that many other oncologists do not; neuroblastomas, schwannomas, Merkel cell skin cancers, neuroendocrine tumors and Pancoast tumors are just a few such diagnoses that we see on a regular basis. We understand that each condition – and each patient – is unique, and that maintaining a high level of specialization is one of the most effective ways to meet our patients’ needs.
With some of the most knowledgeable and experienced oncologists in the country, we are able to ensure that every patient who walks through our doors receives the best treatment plan for his or her unique diagnosis. We provide surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy, as well as advanced options like immunotherapy and hormone therapy. Additionally, we are able to:
- Evaluate a patient’s symptoms (if he or she does not yet have a confirmed diagnosis) and perform any necessary diagnostic testing
- Ensure every new patient receives an individualized treatment plan and complex cases are reviewed by a multispecialty tumor board
- Provide many patients with an expanded selection of treatment options through our robust clinical trials program and research initiatives
