Surgical Treatments for Cancer
Cancer surgery, also known as surgical oncology, is one of a number of cancer treatment options at Loyola Medicine. Our fellowship-trained cancer surgeons specialize exclusively in the diagnosis, biopsy and surgical removal of many types of cancer.
Loyola’s cancer surgeons work closely with doctors in medical oncology, hematology and radiation therapy to create an interdisciplinary team and provide you the best possible cancer care.
Our goal is to remove your cancer, or as much of your cancer as possible. At Loyola, the most progressive cancer treatments are available, including robotic surgery and other advanced procedures.
In addition to performing surgery, our surgical oncologists also perform ongoing cancer research and teach medical students at the Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine.
