Pediatric Hematology/Oncology
Our Team
Our doctors, nurses, and others form a coordinated team around each child to provide the most complete care for each child, based upon the type and stage of their disease. Primary team members include:
- Pediatric hematologists/oncologists
- Pediatric hematology/oncology nurse practitioners
- Colleen Barron, Child Life Specialist
In addition, each child's medical team includes specialists in their specific condition. For example, the team for a child with a brain tumor might include a neurosurgeon and a neuroradiologist or an orthopedic oncology specialist might participate in a team for a child with a skeletal malignancy.
This team approach fosters an ideal exchange of knowledge and expertise, insuring that the best possible treatment plan is developed for each child.
