What is a Surgical Oncologist and How Can They Help You?

A surgical oncologist uses operative techniques to diagnose, stage, and treat malignancies. These surgeons perform cancer resection procedures and participate in multidisciplinary oncology teams.

Surgical oncologists complete medical school, a five-year general surgery residency, and a two- to three-year surgical oncology or complex general surgical oncology fellowship. Some focus on organ-specific cancers such as breast, GI, or hepatobiliary malignancies.

A Surgical Oncologist's practice encompasses:

  • Specializes in operative cancer management throughout the body
  • Assesses cancer patients, performs diagnostic tissue sampling, evaluates surgical candidacy, executes oncologic operations, provides postoperative oversight
  • Treats mammary malignancies, cutaneous melanoma, soft tissue sarcomas, gastrointestinal neoplasms, and other solid tumors
  • Performs cancer resections, lymphatic tissue removal, minimally invasive oncologic procedures, and reconstructive operations
  • Alternative names: oncologic surgeon, cancer surgery specialist, MD, DO
