Surgery is the backbone of treatment for cancer and the general surgical oncologist is best equipped to care for these patients. Our surgeons treat all of the above malignancies. However, the best success is achieved with a combined team approach including the surgeon, oncologist and radiation therapist. It is our philosophy to treat cancer with a team approach. Our medical community offers all patients access to the best trained specialists in the region and our surgeons are highly trained and experienced in the surgical care of cancer patients. They pride themselves in staying updated in the latest technology and surgical advances.
