Lalit H. Vora, MD

“Here (at City of Hope) people are courteous, dedicated and remarkably helpful. People truly mean, 'May I help you?'” Originally headed for a business career, Lalit H. Vora, M.D., turned to medicine for its ability to help those in need, and the personal satisfaction it provides. As a diagnostic radiologist, Dr. Vora is particularly proud of a needle biopsy program he developed for breast, neck and thyroid lesions which is highly accurate and virtually painless. Educated in India, Dr. Vora supplemented his Mumbai medical training with an internship at Mercer Hospital, Trenton, New Jersey, residency at Ohio State University and a radiology fellowship at St. Michael's Hospital, University of Toronto. At City of Hope since 1993, Dr. Vora works constantly on improving imaging techniques and equipment and lectures frequently on the subject.
