Fox Chase and Temple University Health

Our Gynecologic Oncology Fellowship takes advantage of the combined resources of two of Philadelphia's most well-established academic medical centers to provide an outstanding and diverse educational experience for fellows.

Fox Chase Cancer Center, part of the Temple University Health System, is one of the leading cancer research and treatment centers in the United States. Founded in 1904 in Philadelphia as one of the nation’s first cancer hospitals, Fox Chase was also among the first institutions to be designated a National Cancer Institute Comprehensive Cancer Center in 1974. Temple University Hospital is the major clinical training site for the Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University. The Hospital is a large urban academic medical center that sees over 35,000 inpatient admissions a year.
