Our Approach 

Working Together to Treat Cancer

Patients with cancer need a team of dedicated specialists who collaborate to provide treatment plans that are uniquely designed for them.

Your Medical Team

At a Geisinger cancer clinic you will be the focus of an entire team of medical specialists. As a result, you will have access to several physicians at once and will benefit from nearly 100 years of proven cancer experience.

Your team may include the following:

• Medical oncologist: specializes in diagnosing and treating cancer using chemotherapy
• Surgical oncologist: specializes in cancer surgery
• Radiation oncologist: specializes in diagnosing and treating cancer using radiation
• Cancer psychologist: counsels patients newly diagnosed with cancer
• Radiologist: interprets medical images to diagnose disease
