Faculty in the Division of Surgical Oncology at Tulane University are committed to delivering comprehensive cancer care to patients with a wide variety of malignancies. This is most often done in a multidisciplinary setting where our surgeons work had in hand with other specialists to deliver the most up to date treatment for these cancers. This includes collaboration with medical and radiation oncologists, gastroenterologists, interventional radiologists and dermatologists among others.
