St. Joseph's/Candler Physician Network - Oncology

A cancer diagnosis is one of the most frightening things a person can hear. At the Nancy N. and J.C. Lewis Cancer & Research Pavilion, we take a multi-disciplinary approach to clinical care to ensure each individual patient receives the most comprehensive treatment available.

Our cancer specialists provide every level of cancer care expertise that you need from our medical oncologists to our surgeons to our radiation oncologists to our nurse navigators and many more. They work in collaboration on individualized patient plans through every aspect of cancer care from diagnosis to recovery for seamless care.

Oncology is the branch of medicine that deals with the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cancer. A medical professional who practices oncology is an oncologist. St. Joseph's/Candler employees a number of board-certified oncologists and hematologists. They work together to see patients through every step of their journey from screening to surgery to treatment to survivorship. The cancers we treat are:
