Medical oncology: These cancer specialists usually take the lead on your treatment plan. We offer chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and more. Our doctors are associated with New York Cancer and Blood Specialists.
Radiation oncology: These doctors specialize in using radiation to treat cancer. They provide high-quality care for breast, prostate, brain, lung, head and neck, and gynecologic cancers. Our radiation oncologists are part of Advanced Radiation Centers of New York. We use the newest technologies, including RapidArc Radiotherapy and Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT). IMRT focuses high-dose radiation on a precise target. It means minimal damage to healthy tissue and fewer side effects.
