Area of Expertise: Head and Neck Cancer Care(Part of Cancer Care)

Also called: head and neck oncology

Doctors in head and neck cancer care work closely with our other cancer specialists, such as radiation oncologists and medical oncologists, to decide the best treatment plan available for you. Should you require reconstructive surgery, a surgeon with extensive reconstruction experience is available to see you in the same building as our clinic.

This multidisciplinary approach to health care is the standard for clinics in the UAMS Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute and not only offers comprehensive care but also reduces the number of clinic visits required.

Depending on your condition, you may be eligible to participate in clinical trials offering new and innovative treatments not available elsewhere in Arkansas.
