Surround Yourself with a Specialized Team
Welcome to University of Minnesota Physicians Masonic Cancer Clinic. We are world leaders in applying a multidisciplinary team approach to treating cancer in all its forms. Our specialists focus their combined expertise on providing swift and accurate diagnosis, and leading-edge solutions for the treatment of cancer and blood disorders.
A Collaborative Approach to Care
Our multidisciplinary teams include physician specialists in medical oncology, hematology (blood disorders), radiation oncology, surgical oncology, pathology, diagnostic radiology, and oncology nurse coordinators. Each team is disease-specific, which means every physician on your team is a specialist in the research and treatment of your specific condition. Each week the teams meet to review your progress and individual treatment. This allows them to make quick adjustments to your treatment plan based on your response and progress. As active members of the University of Minnesota Cancer Center, our physicians are committed to ensuring that all patients benefit from the most current clinical trials, breakthroughs in therapies and treatments, and the latest in technology.
