Medical Oncology

The Medical Oncologist is a cancer doctor who specializes in treating cancer by giving chemotherapy drug treatments. Often, pancreatic patients need chemotherapy before surgery or chemotherapy is the main treatment given if surgery is not an option. The Medical Oncologist will discuss the details of chemotherapy including the drugs used, possible side effects and how/when the treatment is given.
