Our team of physicians at the Center for Head and Neck Cancers practice multidisciplinary medicine in the treatment of these kinds of cancers. Head and neck cancers are very highly treatable when caught early, but require aggressive treatment using surgery and/or chemotherapy and radiation.

Multidisciplinary Tumor Board
At our Center, an interdisciplinary tumor board meets to discuss new cases and discuss diagnostic and treatment options. Otolaryngologists (ENT physicians), radiologists, pathologists, medical oncologists and radiation oncologists sit on this tumor board. Their combined experience results in the best diagnostic and treatment options for all our patients.

Unparalleled surgical expertise
