Our services include consultation for patients with gynecologic cancers as well as complex benign gynecologic surgical concerns. Our breast surgeons treat women, as well as men, with benign and malignant breast health issues. We provide education regarding genetic risk for cancers, as well as genetic testing. Our surgeons are credentialed to operate at several area hospitals. Mammography and breast ultrasound, and minimally invasive breast biopsies, are performed in our office.
Gynecologic Oncology
Our gynecologic oncologists evaluate and treat both benign and malignant conditions.
Treatment of gynecologic cancer is individualized, based on many factors. Our surgeons provide both surgical treatment and, when indicated, chemotherapy. They also work closely with radiation oncologists, who provide radiation treatments, which may be necessary for some cancers. Most cases are presented at a multidisciplinary conference, so that patients benefit from input from multiple surgeons, pathologists, radiologists, oncologists, and radiation oncologists, even before treatment begins. After treatment for cancer, patients will continue follow up in our office to monitor for recurrence, complications or side effects of treatment.
