Our Cancer and Infusion Services

We pride ourselves on establishing a relationship with our patients. We take the time to listen to you, fully explain your condition, and address your questions. We discuss all treatment options available to you. We provide high-quality care for blood, breast, prostate, brain, lung, head and neck, and gynecologic cancers. Our team approach includes:

Medical oncology: Our hematology/oncology specialists usually take the lead on your treatment plan. We offer chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and therapeutic infusions.

Therapeutic infusion: Our hematologists offer therapeutic infusion services for many noncancerous conditions such as anemia, autoimmune diseases (Crohn’s disease, osteoporosis), myelodysplastic syndromes, platelet disorders, and thrombophilia.

Radiation oncology: These doctors specialize in using radiation to treat cancer. 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.

Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT): This test uses tiny amounts of a radioactive substance called a radiotracer. It lets us observe your organs and tissues. We can also see how they are functioning. 

Breast imaging: We use a wide range of breast imaging services to help determine the best treatment plan for you. Our services range from high-resolution breast ultrasound to 3D mammography.
 
Breast surgery: Our office includes an onsite breast surgeon who has experience performing a wide range of procedures. These include breast-conserving surgery and mastectomy.

Our hematology/oncology doctors have access to the latest research and cancer treatment protocols of the Mount Sinai Tisch Cancer Center. If you need highly specialized treatment, such as for multiple myeloma, we may refer you to Mount Sinai’s Center of Excellence for Multiple Myeloma for transplant therapy and participation in clinical trials.
