Furlong, PA 18925
Associate Professor, Department of Surgical Oncology
Combined-Modality Therapy for Gynecologic Cancers; Minimally-Invasive Surgery; Wellness Support
One reason I chose to work at Fox Chase is because we have the best tools available to accurately assess and treat complex gynecologic conditions. We have the latest technology to perform surgery, and as a multispecialty center, we can handle unexpected findings as well. This results in better outcomes for my patients.
I like to offer my patients options rather than dictating one treatment approach. My mother had breast cancer, which has given me better insight into the issues facing my patients. As the mother of three, I have a broad life perspective for this field. And I realize that my patients don't always understand the medical information being presented to them; I take the time to translate the information so they can understand the terminology, which helps them in the decision-making process. Partnering with my patients to develop a treatment plan that is both medically and personally appropriate is the most rewarding aspect of my practice.
