Surgical Oncology
Surgery is often the first method used in diagnosing or treating cancer. It may be followed by other treatments such as chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Some surgical procedures are done in an outpatient setting, while others may require hospitalization. Surgical oncologists use the latest techniques to treat tumors and reconstruct tissue while restoring function and appearance.
Our surgical oncologists work as a team with our oncologists and other physicians to obtain the best possible outcome for our patients.
