Surgical Oncology
We understand that a cancer diagnosis can be life-altering, bringing with it a wave of concerns and emotions that can feel overwhelming. At Yale Medicine, you can trust in our dedicated surgical oncology team to provide not only compassionate care but also the information you need to make empowered decisions about your health.
An integral part of our approach is to give you detailed answers by thoroughly explaining your treatment options and what you can expect before, during, and after surgery. For every surgery, we focus on giving you the most successful outcome, resulting in the least pain, scarring, and recovery time. Our expert surgeons are leaders in minimally invasive procedures, even for many complex cases that would otherwise require traditional open surgery.
